To the family and friends of Chris, I was saddened to learn of Chris's passing. I first met Chris a number of years ago when he joined Boy Scout Troop 836. As a Scout leader in Troop 836, I spent many enjoyable hours with him on camping trips and other Scouting activities. Chris was a good Scout who enjoyed the outdoors and was well-liked by the other Scouts. Over the years I saw him around Chesapeake often; my son, Brian, was also a wrestler and we would see Chris at middle school...

I can not even begin to fully understand the pain that you are going through but one thing that I can assure you of is that God did not take Chris away from you. God is a loving person and would not do anything to purposely hurt you or anyone else. The bible tells us at Ezekiel 18:32 that God "does not take delight in the death of someone dying." I am very sorry for your loss and hope that you will find strength to endure and comfort for your souls. Learn more about your Heavenly Father...

Chris, there are so many good qualities to you. You were such a nice person. Good hearted. You always made people smile and feel better when they were down. I'm going to miss you and I know there are so many more who will as well. I can't believe your gone. You always made me laugh in english when it was dead silent. You were a great person. I know you will be looking over everyone.

We will never understand why God takes the good ones from us, He called him home way too early. None of us will find the right answer, but we must believe that it is the best thing. It still is unreal, doesn't seem like it was possible for someone so blessed, so loved to be gone. Chris, you were not only my ex-neighbor (: but you were a friend, who always brought a smile to our faces. I'll never forget you yelling from across the street, that giggle you made, sitting in the street, or...
