Your were our first Grandchild & my favorite Grandson all these years. Life was so short and a facsimile of my favorite nephew. I thought of you daily and prayed you would someday be able to be with us to share in family reunions but God had other plans. Still I have some great memories of you & I traveling together on a few trips in the Desert & only wish we could have had more. God Bless Chris.
