Chris I remember working with you back in the day for Coleman & Associates a Verizon contractor, when I came across you on FB and asked if you remembered me you said of course I do, back then you were so nice and personable. Before you passed we had an awesome conversation mostly about Yahweh(GOD) whom you truly Love and praise him through all you were going through. I just know you are Praising him as we speak and you are happy and free and at peace

We send our love, prayers and condolences to the Banks family in the transition of Chris. You all made us family and we share in your sorrow. Chris was a faithful warrior and he fought a good fight until the end, overcoming many obstacles. He is victorious and he has won the battle! His transparency through the illness was an inspiration to us all. I know he is rejoicing with his heavenly father. I believe his earthly father Lloyd and his Big Mama, (Mother Combs) welcomed him and they are all rejoicing together. Take your rest, Chris. You earned it! With love, The Handy Family, Evangelist Chestina Handy and children, Charisse, Daniel (DJ), Danielle and Christen.

Chris and I first met during a Summer School program for rising tenth graders. Immediately, he stood out. The Spirit of God was all over him. He was a wonderful young man. Always positive and highly respectful to everyone. His spirit and joyfulness carried us through a wonderful summer. His wide smile and a love and kind spirit was ALWAYS present during this program. After the program, wherever we met, he would great me with that wide smile and a positive response about everything. I will remember him as God´s advocate filled with love for others, positive advocate for the Love For Christ!!!! Rest In Peace Chris!!!!!!!

To : Family & Friends We will miss Chris until we see him smiling again with Jesus. Chris was an inspiration to many & showed God’s love to many. He loved Holy Tabernacle & would often post the services. Enjoy walking on the streets of gold until we eventually get there with you.

So sorry to hear about Chris. I taught him at Dozier Middle School. I remember that great smile of his. I also followed him as he went into banking. Prayers go out to the family.
