Bobbi Patrick and I offer our deepest sympathy on the death of our friend, Chris. We have known Chris through our former church All God's Children where he would come for our free meal and worship. He truly loved his salads! Recently Bobbi took care of his weekly laundry at City Center. We both would provide rides for his errands and shared a lunch at Hong Kong Buffet on Dec. 20. The last time we saw him. It was a fun and cheerful time. Especially joking about his favorite food from the buffet. He is at peace now and no longer suffering. We will miss his smile and sly chuckle. His own private joke.
