First off I just wanted to thank everyone for all the love, prayers, and support my family has received during this tragedy. We are blessed to have such a strong support structure.
Christopher, you were truly one of a kind. Your loyalty and the principles you lived by, and ultimately died by, are ones that I hope I can uphold and live up to. You are a true hero, and your spirit will be missed greatly. I love you brother.

~Eternal God, who sends consolation to all sorrowing hearts,
we turn to You for solace in this, our trying hour.
Though bowed in grief as our loved one departs from our midst to enter into peace of life eternal,
we reaffirm our faith in Your compassion and Your ever-present love.
May we bear our sorrow with trustful hearts,
and knowing You are near, may we not despair.
Into Your hands we commend the spirit of our beloved.
Body and soul are Yours, O God,
and in Your presence we cast off fear and are at peace.
"There is no death, what we call death.
Is but surcease from strife;
They do not die who we call dead,
They go from life ... to Life."~
Rest Easy Christopher & Fly High!

Dean, Mike, Debbie & Family,

There are no words that I can think of to help make sense of all of this. May God comfort each of you and bring you peace, as you sort through all of the emotions which will eventually lead to healing. You are all in my thoughts, and in my prayers.
