Dear Lapka's: You are once again at the forethought of my mind as we celebrate the life of Christopher. We miss him and we need to focus on the positives and the influence he had on so many people as he grew up under your guidance. I think of him often throughout the year, but especially now on Memorial Day. My flag was flying for him and thanking him for his life, my freedom. God bless you all. Your reward will be found in heaven. Rhonda & Wayne Gilbert

Remembering Chris on this Memorial Day, and prayers for the family.

Dear Lapka's:

During Veteran's Day you folks were the first on my mind. I'm sure Chris' loss is still painful, but I'm hoping its getting easier with time.

For Chris to give up that which he had worked so hard is amazing of a young person in this day & age. That is a tribute to you, Kenny & Tina, to the manner in which you raised him. I'm sure Michelle has very similar character traits.

Kenny, I will always remember our many rides up ski lifts with you...

Thank you for your Service to Our Country Christopher. You live in our hearts and our memories. God Bless
