Christopher S. Haynes

He will forever be on my mind every day. We had plans. Denied. Hard to believe it's been 17 years.

Happy Heavenly Birthday Chris your smile is missed.

As this day approached My thoughts were about you and what you would be doing ie grand baby college graduations and retirement parties. I remember your love of gathering the crew to impart your wisdom usually safety related. Only wishing I had made it to Texas.

I think of Chris more often than not. We were six years apart. I started senior year high school in San Diego, he started the 6th grade and asked ma to buy the exact same clothes she bought for me. They elected him class President, as a new kid, he claimed because he dressed like a high schooler. He and I did not bond as brothers until his first job in St. Johns, AZ, building a coal fired power plant, living in a man camp but coming to my home in Albuquerque every weekekend for the 18 months...

Good guess. Chris is the big one.

The baby your holding hand.

It took a day to find this one of Chris, sitting in his grand father's lap with his cousin, Pat, also the sole deceased sibling of his family, with Chis' brother and sister. Guess which baby is Chris.

Hope it´s a sunny day in heaven , miss you

He is so missed.
