Joseph Christopher Bottoms

To Bonnie,
Chris was a brother to me. He and Brittany were the best of friends, and she's not been the same since he left. I wish I could have been at the service, but I'm not one for saying goodbye. Chris was in my house more than I was. I loved him, and Brittany loved him more than the rest of us. "Red" was a something to everyone. Friend, brother, son, and a warm heart. I'm glad I am able to say that I had a chance to know him. We'll all carry on, but he'll never be forgotten. ...

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Our only time with Chris was last summer during our family vacation when our nephew Chris invited your Chris to join us. We immediately grew to love "Bottoms" and we quickly became his Aunt Dianne and Aunt Sharon as well. He was delightful and so funny but at the same time respectful and polite. He bragged about his Dad's cooking, of which we teased Chris about an invite to Sunday lunch. We are so sad we only got to know and see Chris for only one week, but it was a week full of...

I enjoyed working with Chris, if only for a short time. He always had a smile and a wave. My impression was always that he was a very well brought-up young man. His parents should be proud of the impression he left in this world. Now he can carry that with him into the next. God Bless.

I am so sorry for your loss...Chris you will be missed so much! RIP

CHRIS WAS A GOOD PERSON AND A SMILE YOU COULD ALWAYS REMEBER . HE WAS A FRIEND TO MY BOYS DANIEL AND ANDY AND WE ENJOYED HIM AND LOVED HIS PERSONALITY. HE WAS ONE OF A KIND, AND HIS FAMILY HAS OUR BLESSINGS. LOVE, DANIEL HICKS, ANDY, AND SYLVIA
