Well it looks like today you would have been Uncle Chris "Shady". I still miss you so very much. Its been so nice this month with 70 degrees weather, prefect riding weather. I still remember that 70 degrees day of Jan '04 when a bunch of us went out and were to meet at the Exxon at 50/301. You would have normally been the 1st one there and when you werent, I knew something was wrong, especially when it was like 10 mins later. I think that was the 2nd day that I've ever cried that much. Anyways, today is not a day for crying but a day of happiness to welcome the new bundle of joy to the world!!

Love You and Miss You with all my heart!!

So the count down begins. Less then 4 days. I just realized someting, this time tomorrow we were already in AC, broke as can be and now 1 year later this time tomorrow, I will be in AC again except without you. I didn't even realize that the days of the week were the exactally the same. Just proves to show you that, I know your still here. Just the other night I had a dream about you, which I have not had one in a very long time. You came out of no where, which enturn I started yelling at you asking where have you been. You said you couldnt tell me but you wanted me to come with you, but like always wouldnt tell me where we were going. So we are driving ( who knows where too ) and all the sudden you pull and this paint ball gun and are shooting cars. All I could do is laugh because that is something you would do. Of course the dream had to come to an end, cause the next thing I know you were telling me you had to go but again couldn't tell me where you were going, but not to worry cause you would be ok. I honestly feel that was your way of telling me that you are ok. I still think about you everyday, but I feel alot better knowing that you came to me in my dream to reasure me that you are ok. Now I am going to ask you for a favor and hopefully you can help me out...Last year, we both left broke...this year i dont wanna leave broke, SO HELP YOUR SIS OUT HERE AND DO WHATEVER IT IS POSSIABLY THAT YOU CAN DO TO ALLOW ME TO WALK AWAY WITH ALOT OF CASH THIS YEAR (trust me i need it). I know your watching over me as I write this letter to you and you will continue to watch over me and guide me as best as you can. I Love You so very much and still Miss You each and every day.

Dear Chris,

Wow, 1 year later. It's hard to belive. just wanted to day hi, and like Jen I miss you very much. We went to visit you last week, Me, Jen, your Mom and Kenny. I hope you saw us there. Sometimes I can't find the words to day but I know in my heart you hear me when I am talking. I see bikes also and think sometimes, boy that guy looks just like you. Or I see some one on a bike with their helmet tiled back on their head. I miss you bringing your friends, Tony, Justin and all the rest of the crew when you all would come over and ride bikes - 4 wheelers etc here and all come home looking like mud pies. I really miss that. And no I really didn't mind everyone being here. It made me smile.

Love you and Miss you.

Dear Son,
A year is almost past and it still feels like yesterday. God continues to let us know you are okay now and well cared for. That helps but Mom and I and your brother, sisters and friends still miss you greatly. Chris I love you very much and I was always proud of you no matter what the circumstances. God is giving us a granddaughter to love in your place but someday we will meet up with you again for ever.
love
Dad and Mom

It's me again. I honestly can't belive that it's been almost a year since that horrible day. There isn't too many days left that I am going to be able to write to you on here, which really is just for me to vent how I am feeling right now, but like I told Crystal Mc yesterday after finding out another one of her good friends just left us the other day, that talking about how you feel and the good and bad times you had with the person you are missing really does help. I honestly didn't believe it at least but it's really true. You may end up crying but it's ok cause those are happy tears. I have decided not to have a party for my birthday on the 28th this year, because that day isn't going to be about me this year, its going to be about celebrating your life. Not really sure how that is going to go but I just don't think it's right to have a big party on a day I really wish I could take back in my life. Mon, Dad, Kenny and I and maybe a couple outhers are going to AC for 2 days right before the anniversay and my birthday. It was moms idea to go, I just hope she doesn't get scared and back out right before but we will see. We are all saying it's to celebrate my birthday but deep down I know we are going because that is really the last place anyone really knows where you were. Just tonight I went by the Exxon at 50/301 where we would always meet everyone to go riding and as I pulled up there were 2 bikes sitting there pumping gas. It makes me so upset sometimes wanting to cry and sometimes not wanting to cry cause I miss you so very much. About I month ago I was driving in Dover and on the other side of the rd was a bike doing a stand up and just as I saw him this song which was played at your homecoming came on...that was all she wrote for me. I honestly don't know how I continuted to drive. I have cried recently but not that bad in a while. Things are getting a little better day by day which it still isn't the same and never will be without you here. I Love You with all my heart and still miss you each and everyday.

Chris, its been some time now since I've written. I miss you more then life itself. I started going back to OB's again. Jason is Dj'n just like old times. Donnie is still there. There is even a new guy there that looks like you. When I walked in the door the other night, my stomach turned over several times, and I lost my breath. I couldn't stop staring at him all night. Sometimes when I'm driving and I hear bikes coming up behind me, I pray so hard its you. I had this dream that you walked in my door, told me everything was ok. That you weren't really gone. I woke up in tears when I realized it was just a dream. I thought time was suppose to heal all this. Guess when people say that, they are just trying to make ya feel better, cuz no amount of time will fill the void. No amount of time will heal the hurt. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about you, and what trouble we'd be getting into! Life for me has changed completely. I never knew what people ment when they said they go numb. Now I do. I feel like I've been living in a haze. I just want you back here with me. It hurts so much not having you here. I love you Chris. XoXo

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SON,
YOU DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH YOU DAD AND I MISS YOU. LIFE DOESN'T SEEM RIGHT WITHOUT YOU TO CALL AND HUG AND TELL ABOUT OUR PROBLEMS.But we know you would have wanted us to live life as you saw it.It is very hard to even try that but your brother has tried to keep us in line. And Jen and Carla are the daughters we never had. You had a very special Blessing having them as bestfriends for-ever.As I look outside today and its rainning so hard I understand why God is crying soo much. He gave his son at such a young age too. We are so blessed to have your friends in our life because they have closed the lost hours. We know you are in such a wonderful place and know you are watching over your family, as the angel above. We just miss you so and the hurt doesn't get easier as the time goes by. People say it will and i want to beleive them but,the time will only be easywhen we all together again were there is no hurt or pain. and new like you have become. So we need you to watch over all of us and help us to keep in the right path so we can meet you on the other side. For your Dad and Me we love you and this day is very hard because you were a wonderful son and there is a huge space in our life that only love from other can ease and only the Grace of God we can make the next day. You need to watch over your brother and sisters and help them to be strong and do what you would have wanted them to.
We all know you lived life as you wanted and to the fulliest, but only a few knew who and how you really were. The few of us thank you for who you were.
love always, Mom

Dear Chris,

5 months. Boy how time flies. We talk about you every day ( you probably say " what did I do now?)

Nothing, just we love and miss you.

We all, your Mom, Dad, Kenny, Heather, me, Jen and Carla and her mom, went to On The Border for dinner. And as usual had to wait for a table. Our name, "Stewart", was put on the list. So when we checked to see our turn, I looked on the list and the people before us, their name on the list was "Chris". I showed your Mom, and I made her smile. See, she said, "He's here".

Chris - It's been almost 3 months no since you left us. I still think about you each and everyday. Some days are harder then others but some how I manage to get by. Everything is still so very fresh, almost like it happened yesterday, which is good cause that means we are keeping your memory alive. Your Mom and Dad and I are very close, much closer then we ever were before. I have still kept my promise with you to come and see you aleast once a month. I wish I could do more but its still so hard dealing with the fact that your not here, well should I said not in person but I know your here in spirt. You are still my best friend and brother for life. I hope the last couple days of your life were good...I still thank you for going to Atlantic City with me when no one else would go, I am just sorry the trip wasn't a winner, but hey I had a good time and will always remember it. October 28 will always be my Birthday and your Home Coming. I Love You!!!

Shady,

It's been a very long 2 and a half months since you left us. Each day seems an eternity and I miss you so much. It really hurts for us to not hear your voice or see your face with that silly smirk. Even one of your off color phone voicemails would sound so good to me. Shady I loved you unconditionaly and was always proud you were our son. I only wanted the best for you and I wish you were here just 1 more hour to stop the hurt. Your mom and I will always love you and someday well be together again. Hug my Dad for me and tell him I love him too.

In Memory Of Our Beloved Son, Christopher, SHADY, Stewart

It Has been lonesome here without you,

We miss you more each day,

Life hasn't seemed the same,

Since you left us that sad day,

A Golden heart stopped beating,

Your hard working hands at rest,

God broke our hearts to prove he only takes the BEST,

When days are sad and lonely,

And everything seem to go wrong,

We seem to hear your voice whisper Cheer up I'm always near,

Each time we see your picture which is always near,

You seem to smile and say,

Dont cry,

All I'm in God's care,

We will meet again someday soon on the other side.

Love Shady

Yesterday was one month to the day since you left us. I went to see you for the first time yesterday which was really hard, since I am still not ready to let you go and especially since I see toys in the mall that you would buy. Like the singing green frog and the black EXT power wheels. The one good thing is that Mindy and I are good friends, which is what her and I both know you would really want. You are still very much missed and always will be. Talk to you later. Love You Your Baby Sister aka "Old Roommate" - Jen

Dear Chris,

Just thought I would pass this note to you, Jen and I were shopping in Kmart the other night and saw a furry green singing frog playing the guitar. When she saw that, she pushed play only to hear "Joy To The World." "Chris would have loved that she said.". Smiling ear to ear.

Love you and miss you,

Chris, its now been two long weeks w/o you. This is so hard I can't not blink w/o seeing an image of you. You were so much more to me then just my friend, you were my brother. I didn't think that i'd be sitting here with out you, ever. I thought that we would be old together. You were suppose to walk me down the isle when i finally decided to settle down and get married. Now what am i suppose to do? I know you see me and Josh, I know your looking down on us, and i just hope you approve. I know all you wanted for me was someone to treat me right. I know this cuz of the way you went after you know who when we started talking! LOL! Well i believe that you put Josh and i togther and i thank you for that. There isn't a day thats gone by that a tear has not fallen. I miss you so much that it hurts. My heart is broken worse then i ever thought it could ever be. You and i have been through so much together, for so many years that the next ten years seem unreal. I do have to say thank you though. Thank you for sticking up for me when it counted. And thanks for all the times you threw me in the bushes, dunked my head in the toliet, and stuck me in the trunk of the cars. You are awesome and my life will never be the same w/ you. A few weeks ago you asked me to get you a pic of Josh for you. Well i did, and now your at peace w/ Josh right beside you. I love you so much Chris and i miss you more then anyone could ever think. As the tears roll down my face all i can think about is how am i suppse to go on knowing i don't have you in my life anymore. I love you.

Carla-your lil sis forever

Chris-

I've known you but such a short time, and you've affected my life in such great ways. Everytime we you were around I knew I was in for trouble!! Laughing nonstop is all I did. You will truly be missed!

Gone but Not Forgotten! To your family and friends, he will always be with you!

November 7, 2005

Your crazy truck you had to help me into, riding w/you to Balt & DC, your pretty eyes and smile, my ear burning because of how long we stayed on the phone. I'll always remember these things about you. But mostly, I'll remember how kind you were to me-always, how much fun it was just to be around you. You, your family and friends are in my prayers-I'm glad you didn't suffer. Be at peace Shady

He Took My Hand

Last night I was trying to sleep; Chris' voice did I hear.I opened my eyes and looked around; Chris did not appear. He said instead, You must listen; you must try to understand that God didn't take me from you. He only took my hand. When I called out in pain that day,that instant that I died. He reached down and took my hand and pulled me to his side. He pulled me up and saved me from the misery and pain. My body was wracked with pain; He knew I'd never be the same. My search is really over now,I've found perfect peace within. All the answers to my dreams and all that should have been. I love you all and miss you so; I'll always be nearby. My body's gone forever; but my spirit will never die. And so you must go on living now. Live one day at a time; and please,please understand. God didn't take me from you; he only took my hand.

Love,

Christopher

So sorry to hear about your loss. I remember sitting in sunday school with chris and kenny jr at the Nazzerene church in ellicott city. I remember them pulling in the parking lot in a space age looking mini van.(new chevy van at the time). That always stuck in my head for whatever reason. Anyways I heard the news this morning and just could not believe it. Kenny Jr, Hang in there man, Mom /Dad, I know its hard but try to keep your head up and remember time heels. Always remember the good times. If I can do anything for you guys, let me know. Take Care,.... Brad.

November 5, 2005

That crazy truck of yours, riding to DC, crazy through the s-turn, that smile and my phone burning my ear b/c of the length of our conversations. Those are a few of the things I'll always remember 'bout you. But mostly, it'll be how kind you were to me-always and how much fun it was just to be around you. You and your family & friends are in my prayers. I'm glad you didn't suffer-be at peace Shady.

Chris,

I am so glad to have met you, I remember when Duane and I first started dating 5yrs ago I met you and thought you were such an outgoing guy with a huge heart, I remember we had a huge snow storm and since I was a nurse I had to go to work you picked Duane up and then drove all the way to Baltimore to get me because you had a truck, you were always there for Duane and for that I thank you, even though you guys would lose contact for periods of time please know he will miss you alot.

Chris,

As the tears well up in my eyes right now I can't tell you how much I am gonna miss you. You taught me more about life than you will ever know. Some of the best times of my life involved you. You meant more than you knew to so many, so it's going to be that much harder to say goodbye.

Love you brother,

Duane

P.S. Thanks for the good memories.

Chris

I'm going to miss our middle of the night phone calls and tearin it up on the 4-wheelers at 2 am. I'm going to miss the times you called me in the middle of a class and yelled "ANSWER YOUR F***ING PHONE!" to get me kicked out for the night, i'm going to miss driving around aimlessly looking for something to do at 4 am, but most of all, i'm going to miss having you to keep me up all night, to talk, to laugh, and to call me at all hours just to wait me up and laugh. I'm so sorry this happened to you, but i'm glad you went peacefully, doing what you loved the most.

You'll be missed

Chris was like one of my own children. Give him a warning when he would take Jen out riding to be careful and give him a hug when he did a really great thing, like pulling me out of a ditch when I put my husband's 4 wheel drive in the ditch during a snow storm.

I will forever remember Chris "Shady" like one of my own kids. Sleep well my son.
