Chris--I love and miss you so very much. There are not enough words to express how we are all feeling right now. I have always been so proud of you and the person you became and I am so very proud to have you for a big brother. Your life here on earth was short, way too short and none of us have the answers to why you had to leave us, but I would not trade the 31 years I had of being YOUR sister for one hundred years with anyone else. You are truly THE BEST!!!! The way you were with Danzic touched my heart and if I can raise him to be half the man that you were, I will have done my job well. You will never leave our thoughts and our hearts. Your spirit will shine through in your beautiful girls and in all of the people whe you loved and who loved you.

Mom and Dad: I love you both so much and I wish that there was something that I could do to help ease your pain, but I know that there are no magic words or actions in any of this. I just hope that in time you both can find comfort in knowing that even though Chris' life was short, it was very full and he has been promoted to a better life, one without any pain or worries.

Cindy, Kayla, Calle, and Korra: All four of you have touched my life. I love you all very much and I want each of you to know that I (and the entire family) will always be here for you. Family was very important to Chris and he will help all of us get through this together.

there are no words to express my feelings of my big brother. He and some of his friends tought me stand upfor myself and fought some people that picked on me.And I hope that he knew how much I loved him,when I had my girl he was very protective of her.When he became a father he also was very protective father. Becoming a father was the best thing that happend to him. To Chris his friends were part of his family. his best friend Gary was as close to a brother to him as I was. It has been a honor to be his little brother, but he still lives through our hearts and his 3 girls

WE LOVE YOU CHRIS and I will look after the girls for him. your little brother john

Dear Dee, Bev, Cindy

Our thoughts & prayers are with you all at this very difficult time.

You will be going thru a lot of emotions and hurts for a long time.

We do not know why Chris was taken at such an early time in his life. We do know that he will live on in the lives of his beautiful girls and his devoted wife, & wonderful parents that have always been there for him. It is okay to ask the questions and be angry and hurt, but we do know God has a plan for all of us and we just have to trust Him. May God's Blessings be on all of you.

Love, Ginger, Roy & Ray
