Life is eternal, and love is immortal,
and death is only a horizon;
and a horizon is nothing save the limit of our sight.

My deep sympathies to the Hayhurst Family.

Chris/Shaggy I love you as a brother and a great friend. You left us much too soon. I'll always remember the great times at the STAG club, the visits to Arizona to hang out, Fun times in Chicago for the blues fest and trying to figure out who was the worst bowler in the Q-Fm league. Thanks buddy. My prayers go out to the family.

Chris you will be greatly missed by the people close to you. We had some good times at the stag club. I want to take this chance to remind everyone your circle of friends and family are closer than you know in good times and bad, you need to remember that and embrace them and reach out to them when you are in place that seems to be lost. Out of respect for chris reach out to those people and make sure you let them know you care. Life is precious. We will miss you, in body, mind and spirit and I hope you are at a place of peace and tranquility.
