Christopher David Guida

August 20, 2020 Debra, It is with a heavy heart that I learn about Christopher's passing. Sadly, it is two and a half years after his death that I became aware of it. I still have the thank you card that he wrote to me at the end of the school year for being his Spanish teacher - with a lovely note from you, too. It is a card you made yourself with a picture of Christopher smiling on the front with balloons in the background. I've kept that card on my shelf in my office all these years. It is not the fact that he thanked me for helping him throughout the year that made me hold on to it, but rather the fact that he was such a kind, sweet soul and I wanted to remember the impact that he made on me to become a better teacher. I just moved and packed the card to bring with me to my new home. Once again, it sits on the shelf in my office.
I don't know if this message will get to, but I hope that somehow it does. Please know that you and Christopher are in my thoughts.

We have know Christopher from the day he was born. He and his mom, Debi, lived in the apartment next to ours for four years. We were able to spend a lot of time with a very interesting and imaginative little boy. Christopher was an early talker, so he was able to express his thoughts, ideas, and impressions with everyone. When he moved with his mother to Pelham and then to Pleasantville, we continued to be involved with his birthday parties, piano recitals, confirmation, jazz band concerts, holidays, and graduations.

It has taken us this long to write here in this Guestbook about Christopher, because we continue to mourn and cry over the realization that he has left all of us. We extend our sympathy to his mother, Debi, and thank her for bringing her beloved son in our lives also.

I just read about Christopohers passing. My heart aches for your sadness. He was a sweet boy. May his memory always be blessed.

I am so sorry for your loss. Chris was such a nice friend to me. I remember first grade with him at Hutchinson Elementary School, it was years ago but we got in contact again after high school. He remained that sweet boy and I'll always remember him like that! Rest In Peace, Christopher.

I am so very sorry for the Guida Family's loss. I met Christopher and his Mom at an HP event at the Milford Mill Swimming quary when his Aunt Corrie introduced me to her adorable toddler nephew. I am just thinking about that lovely little boy, his Mom, Corrie and Fred at this time. Kindest Regards, Kathy Freund

Dear Debi, I am in complete shock reading that Chris has passed. My deepest condolences to you. As you know, I had the opportunity of meeting up with Chris in the last few months after many years. We chatted a couple of times and I recently gave him a couple of photos of you and him. That was just a couple of weeks ago. I will alway's remember Chris as the adorable young boy he was and the kind man he became. I am so grateful I had these recent moments. My heart goes out to you.

My heart goes out to you Debbie. My prayers to the family

Chris was an amazing friend. When I heard about his passing I broke down because we had talked a few weeks earlier about school and life and how we couldn't wait to see where the future took us. I have lost many friends in my life but none left me as saddened then Chris. We got very close about 2 years ago and had a falling out but we still loved and cared for one another.

I am so sorry for your lose. For our lose. He was an extraordinary young man. Always made me and my kids smile.

Although I never knew or had the pleasure of meeting Christopher, he sounds like a truly exceptional young man. My heart breaks, deepest sympathies to all who were lucky to know him...may he Rest In Peace

I will always remember Chris's contagious smile, his love of his mother, friends, and music. In Boy Scouts, he was always eager to lend a hand to other scouts. He will be remembered fondly. My thoughts and prayers are with Debra and his family. May he rest peacefully.

I am thinking of you today.
Love,
Kathleen FitzPatrick

Dear Ms. Guida,
I had the pleasure of meeting Chris on several occasions as he was a friend of my daughter Mecca. I am so so sorry to hear of Chris's passing. He was a very considerate, kind, polite young man with so much talent and potential. He was very funny and had a very good work ethic. I will never forget Chris. My heart goes out to you and your family. God must have needed another Angel for I know Chris will now be watching over you. God Bless and Keep you!
