Christopher, you are the love of my life and to come home to this news tore me to the very depth of my soul. I woke up every morning looking forward to your smile and to look into your eyes... The world will be a bitter place without you in it, because your joy was they only thing that kept me fighting. Thanks to you I've been fighting the hard fight and been clean almost 2 years, I couldn't have done that without your love and strength Chris my love, my God will you be sorely missed. This kills me, how do I do this without you with me? We were supposed to do this together, now i have to do it alone... I will do it in your memory, I love you more than you more than life itself, and you will be remembered for the handsome, strong, amazing man that you were.
