Christopher Bhai Obituary

Bhai
Christopher K. Bhai Sunday morning, September 18th 2011 Christopher Bhai went to be with his Lord and Savior at the age of twenty-five. He lived his life as a servant, bringing laughter and joy to everyone he knew. He was a protector that was always ready to stand up for what was right. " 'Topher " didn't see the lines that most people are afraid to cross -he wouldn't hesitate to help someone regardless of their background, and was ready and willing to help no matter what a person had done in their past. He loved to dance and was always there to cheer up anyone that was having a hard time. Even people that only met him once were deeply impacted by his positive personality. He was dearly loved and
will be missed. Christopher is survived by his parents Ismail M and Deborah Bhai; brother and sister-in-law Nicholas and Cristiane Bhai; his sisters Nicole and Kristian Bhai and his grandparents Mr and Mrs Ed Elingson, Mr and Mrs Mohammad Bha and numerous other relatives and friends. In lieu of flowers the family requests that a donation be made in Christopher's honor to the Gesundheit! Institute. Due to the health
issues he has struggled with since 2004, Christopher developed a desire to contribute to the well-being of the world around him. Christopher believed that one's health cannot be separated from the health of the family, the community and the world. Donations can be
placed at www.patchadams.org. Visitation will be held 1-2pm Friday. Funeral services will be held 2pm Friday, September 23, 2011 at the Klein Funeral Home in Tomball with Mr. Lee Gladney officiating.

I met Chris at Baylor University, where I was privileged to have him as a student. His ever-present smile and gentle spirit were refreshing for all those who crossed paths with him. I share in your sorrow at this great loss. May the Lord comfort you, and bring you peace, as only He can.

Although it has been years since we were at Cypress Community Christian School and Christopher and our son, Derek, were in kindergarten and 1st grade, we do remember a sweet, vibrant little boy. We are so sorry to hear of Christopher's passing and we pray that the Lord our God will give you peace and comfort each day knowing that Christopher is with Christ!

To the entire Bhai family...Jeff and the Lokey family send our sympathy in the loss of Chris. The few times i have been with Chris was such a blessing as he showed such a zest for life! The scripture tells us that to be absent in the body is to be with Christ! You will all be in our prayers! Jeff, Dorian, Blake & Dan.

Kristina and the entire Bhai family....Eddie and I send our heartfelt and deepest sympathy in the loss of such a wonderful man. Even though we had not met Topher in person, we felt that we had known him for many years. Courtney considered him her big brother. We pray for peace and comfort for the entire family.
