Chris…
It’s hard to find the right words for someone who was such a big part of so many of my younger years. In our younger years you were my neighbor, my friend, and a constant in some of my favorite childhood memories. I spent countless days at your house, going to the lake with your family, fishing at Brock’s pond, and watching my dad coach your baseball team. Those are memories I’ll always hold close.
When your family moved to Florida, life took us in different directions and we lost touch for a while. But I’m thankful for social media bringing us back into each other’s lives. You never failed to reach out calls, messages, even letters, and I could always hear how proud you were of your girls. That was something special about you… your love for them ran deep.
I know life wasn’t always easy for you. You fought battles that many didn’t see, but in every conversation we had, I heard your heart. You wanted so badly to turn things around, to be the dad, son, and brother you knew you could be. And we talked a lot about God, about faith, and about hope.
My heart is heavy knowing I won’t get another call, message, or letter from you. But I do find comfort in believing you’re no longer struggling, no longer hurting… and finally at peace.
You’ll always be a part of many others stories, Chris!
Rest easy. 🤍
What a sweet man he was 😢 rip 🪦 my king 🤴
We love you more than I could ever try to describe. Your memory and legacy will forever live on in our son, who I’m fortunate enough to have shared with you. He has so much of you in him, you always were and always will be his hero daddy. I’m forever grateful that I get to raise some of the best parts of you. We love you so much Christopher, our family will never be the same without you. I pray for your peace, you mean more to me than you could ever know, and I can’t wait to see you on the other side.
Lennox says “I love you Daddy soooooo much.” He prays for you every night. I hope you’re enjoying heaven. We will always love you!
