Hey, Mrs. Melinda if you need anything my family is here.

As I sit here thinking about the Friday of that week I remember me telling to bring his homework. As I so happen to get in the classroom I found Christian not sitting in his desk, and that was not the usual. It was hard to believe he left just like that. We are still missing you man, and as everyone stated. You are GONE but you are NOT FORGOTTEN. I am a classmate!

Hey Christian I miss you so much, but evry night before I go to bed I think about the good times we had like, when you would raise yor eyebrow like the "Rock" just to make me smile. I couldn't belive that someone could take away your precious smile with dimples deep as the Nile. I know that you are doing better than me you don't have any pain or suffering. We all love you and miss you, but i know i can't wait till I see you again I know that you will be taken care of because God promised us that and we know that he cannot lie. Aunt Melinda keep ya head up because after the rain comes a brighteer day. I love you Christian and Rest in peace child.

As you already know I will miss my lil cuz and words could never explain the bond we had. When I heard to news I cried and couldn't believe my cuz was really gone I had to call back to make sure if it was really Christian, but as you all know we all have been through a lot together that never keep us down we so I hope this tragedy doesn't.

Ms. Melinda, just know you raised a very respectful young man, who will be greatly missed by all.

My prayers are with you, Kayla and Willie. You took care of your little brother but now God will take care of him.

You have my deepest sympathy and may God be with you during your time of sorrow.

To the Thomas family,
I had the pleasure of teaching Christian when he was in 4th grade at Cohn Elementary. I was deeply saddened to hear of Christian's death. Christian had a joyful personality and the intelligence to go with it. You could always count on that big smile to brighten your day.
My thoughts and prayers will continue to be with your family during this difficult time.

Although I did not know Christian as well as others, I was blessed to have met him a few weeks earlier. I wish the best for his loved ones. Christian will truly be missed by us all, I will especially miss seeing him at school fifth period, how he used to brighten up the day. I send deep love to everyone that was blessed to have known him. May God rest his soul....

Everybody will miss you. The way you would sit in the back of the class and have everybody laughing. The way you would always have your pretty smile on your face when you get busted and just say sorry.WE WILL MISS YOU YOU ARE GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN.

Chritian will be sadly miss, I truly enjoyed the times that we spent together. Christian was like a son to me @ Prescott Middle. May God continue to watch over this family.

To the family words cannot express the pain and sadness we feel for your loss. We all have fond memories and stories to tell of Christian, He will be missed by those that had the pleasure of knowing him as a sweet and vibrant person, even though it had been sometime since we saw him he was never far from our thoughts or conversation. Christian touched everyone he met in someway that will never be forgotten. May God bless you and your family during this difficult time. If you need us we’re here for you.
