I had the privilege and joy of serving Chris as AP English teacher at WHS. I thoroughly enjoyed having him in class. He was a brilliant, funny, and respectful young man. I send my deepest sympathy to all the family and friends -- especially Danielle and Samantha -- who I also taught at WHS. My heart is heavy with the news of this great loss.
Sincerely,
Nancy Terlizzi

There are so many words to say but I am utterly speechless.
Chris was an amazing person. He was like a brother to me but so much more than that. He was kind, intelligent, caring, and understanding. I remember the day he gave his life to the Lord, I didn't really know him, but he said to me "Well, I feel different.." And shortly after that, he became one of my best friends and we saw each other almost everyday. He was always talking about Jesus and asking some of the most outrageous questions, ones Jesus Himself could only answer.
He had the best laugh and he was always smiling, it was contagious. It didn't matter what mood he was in or you were in he could make you laugh so hard you'd cry.
It's unreal that he is no longer here in this flesh with us, and it's heartbreaking. But, I know that he is with the Lord right now, and I know that the day I am called home that he will be standing there with Jesus welcoming me home.
I love you, Christopher Anthony Fletcher. I'll see you soon.
