Cristian "Cris" Ortega

Lamento mucho la perdida de su ser quierido. Pronto Dios va a cumplir su maravillosa promesa.

This young man was definitely the life of any party. We have been blessed to know the Ortega family for a very long time. Our heart and prayers go out to each of the family members during this difficult time, May God place his hand over Efren and heal him as he gently takes the hand of Cristian and leads him to his new home. Loving you always, Marie, Cook, Melissa and Monica Muñoz

I would like to send my condolences to the family. Cris was one of my students at Franklin High School. He was a true joy to be around. He had so much personality. He was also just a really sweet natured and positive human. He was always so kind and warm-hearted. I adored him and thought of him as a son. I cannot imagine the pain that you must all be going through, but I hope that you are able to find some peace in this time of immense sorrow. I will keep the memories of him with me forever....

Efren, Sandra, and family,
It was a such a blessing to have known Chris. He was a gift to everyone that knew him. Always full of love and kindness, smiles that reached to the stars, and laughter that was contagious. Our family was blessed to have known him during high school. Our condolences to your beautiful family. May our Lord be with you and give you His peace.
In His perfect love,

Frank, Anna, Sean, Jason, Austin,
John, and Madison

I would like to offer my condolences and send my love to the Ortega family. My daughter, Ashley Alva, will forever hold him close to her heart and has many wonderful memories with him that she will cherish. I will always remember Cris for his grand, sweet gestures and will always be thankful for the kindness and love he showed my daughter. May God bless you and be with you all.

Efren and Sandra, I am at a loss of words, and I don't know what to say to you to help you feel better. Please accept my condolences. May God give you the comfort and peace that you seek and may the soul of your son rest in peace.

My heart is saddened by this news and my prayers are with all of you at this time. Your boys were a joy to know and I am so grateful to have been a part of their education. May Cris' legacy and your memories be a comfort to you.

I had the pleasure to coach Cristian at Franklin High School. He was one of our top players and leaders on the team. Cristian was also a great and fun kid to be around. God bless Cristian and his entire family.
