Tim, Renee, and Beverly and families. I was out of town when I heard the tragic news of Chris' death. I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you all during this time of loss. I remember someone telling me this verse when Marty passed away. Romans 8:28. I think of this often as trying times come up and it always seems to help get me through. We don't know why some things have to happen but one day we will know.I love you all.

To all of Chris's family we are all very sorry for your loss. Chris was a big part of our lives for a long time, it has been quite a while since we have seen him but he has always been in our thoughts and will continue to be in our memories forever. Beverly and Tim, losing a child is something that none of us can imagine, but our thoughts and prayers will be with you in the days and weeks ahead. Finding the right words to say is not the easiest thing to do at this time but we hope we will continue to pray for you and hope that with time things become a little easier. Sincerely Bill & Dorinda Stokes,Curtis Worrell and Stephanie & Hailey Reams (Rocky Mount)
