CHARLOTTE- Christopher Ryan Starr, usually known as Chris, passed away on February 23, 2024 in Charlotte, NC at age 36. He was a bright and cheerful person, a great storyteller who had a knack for making people laugh and engaging others in meaningful, impactful conversations.

Chris is an amazing person! He always greet you with something hilarious!! He was such an helpful hardworking young man. He always encouraged me to quit my job so we can open up a food truck and go on the road. He was always looking for me to bake him something. I´m truly mourning this tremendous loss of my friend. He touched a lot of lives. Everyone loved him. My friend, you are truly missed. You made an impact on so many lives and don´t think you knew how loved and respected you were. Gone way too soon!
