I didn't know Chris personally, but I would see him around school and he would always smile and speak to me. I am deeply sympathetic towards his passing and I pray that God will continue to protect and comfort this family because he is healer of the broken hearted and He will never put a burden on you that you will not have the grace to bear it with.

To the family of Chris, John 14:1-4 “Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. And you know the way to where I am going. Time heal time.
