Chris had a distinct personality where he kept it real. New how to balance his thoughts and conversation and make humerous remarks. He was definitely a special guy who never judged and had a funny laugh. I miss you daily bra

My dear friend, we talked about so much we shared our dreams of success and laughs. You taught me more about life and always was a help when needed. Always was cool fun and good natured. How can you ask for a better friend. We lived the struggle and you you were a guardian angel through life. I could never ask for more in a friend.
