My heart is so heavy with this news, Stevie. I can only imagine how beautiful Christian was - to the core. How lucky you were to have found eachother. My father once wrote to me that the relationship continues to grow and evolve, even after one partner departs. I have found this to be true. Love and strength to you and your family, Stevie.

Stevie - I'm slow to get around to this but you've been on my mind since the news. I never met Christian but could tell the effect he had on you with your pride in his companionship. Sympathy for you now & ongoing.

I knew Chris back inthe late eighties, early ninties. He was fun to be around and we hung out in his huge boat of a car. I was in the skateboard gang from Stillwater and he came from Baldwin, but fit right in. I am so sorry.

Stevie, my heart and thoughts are with you. Like everyone else, I really liked Christian, and though I didn't know him well I feel an empty space that I know must be enormous for you and the rest of your family. I'm glad to know there are a lot of people who love you and are thinking of you, including me. Peace, sister, if that's at all possible.

Oh Stevie, I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. Christian was taken far too soon. I remember meeting him way back in the day at the Upper Crust & he was such a wonderful person then & all through life, and you two were wonderful together. And I remember chatting with the two of you at the Days Inn in Shen. & the great sense of humor. I know I didn't know you guys well, but my thoughts are with you during this difficult time. I will see you on the 11th.
