Kristopher R. Dobbs

Merry Christmas to the Dobb's family!

We miss you Kris. Keep watching over us...

I talked to my dad today and he saw your parents out and about. they said that i should stop by the next time im in town. the thing is i don't know if i can do that. the fact of walking in your house and seeing the dogs, the pool table where i never could beat you, and your room might be too much. i know your up there looking down on me. im finally almost done with college, i have 5 classes left and ill have a degree in hospitality. i think the thing that bothers me the most is i can't see...

Sometimes it feels like I just haven't seen you in a while, and we'll run into eachother soon. Then it hits me and I know it will never happen. It's such a terrible empty feeling. I can't even imagine how your family is dealing with you being gone (especially your Mom).

Bryant- I read your last entry...and I feel the same way. I know Kris was your best friend and this is killing you. I cry just reading your words, I feel your pain.

It's so hard not to look at his house...

Kris,
i sit here and wonder why you are gone. I drove down your street for the first time since you left all of us. i was at aaron's that night and everone couldn't stop talking about you. I was telling aaron that i don't know if i should be mad or happy that you are in a better place. i just wish that i could get answers about what had happened. I just wish that i could of saw you one last time. i know this might sound selfish, but it wasn't fair that you left without me seeing you. alot...

Happy Birthday....miss you.

I know you're celebrating up there.

Kris,
I wish that we had one last chance to catch up, and that you could of met David and Julia. I know you see her now, and that you are watching over us. Your dad met her at the paddle out, he made me promise to keep coming by- so that he could watch her grow. This is so hard for all of us, keep us strong. I miss you so much.

dobbs,
it has been an awful long tme since i got to see you last. that makes this even more difficult. none of us really have the perfect words to describe how this feels, and how you will be missed. i wish i could have seen you one last time, but find comfort in knowing that you will be saving a spot for all of us when we get there. you are loved by so many, and will be missed by all who met you.

Dear Kelly & Janice:
What a total shock this was to us. We have you in our hearts and are awfully sorry. We hope that you will find comfort when you look out at the ocean - we're sure he still rides the waves every day. God Bless you.

We were saddened to hear or Kris' death. Enjoyed getting to know him when he spent the summer at Diamond Lake.
You are in our prayers.
