Our condolences to the family--we appreciated the respect extended to us by Chris for the short time he was our neighbor. Rest in peace "young man on a skateboard".
Sandy,
My deepest sympathy goes out to you and your family, I am sorry of the loss of Chris. He was a great kid, I remember when he was a little boy his favorite movie was "Beetlejuice". I am surprised it work, because he watched it atleast 10 times a day. Rest in peace Chris.
I knew Chris from high school, he was a good boy, never wanting to cause any harm to anybody, we were all kids then, Chris had shortcomings but despite those he kept an upbeat attitude and did not get down himself. I was able to talk to him by phone recently, little did I know it'd be the last time I'd speak to him...Chris had a lot left to do in the world, and its a shame to see it come to an end so soon. I know he's grateful to the Brian and his family for their care and concern. Chris you're in a better place now, and all the pain is gone. Rest in peace.
To see a young life end so early is an irony that should never exist. Through his hardships, he has demonstrated his willingness to love those around him even when the going gets rough. May he rest in peace and may his family find solace.
Hey Chris, this is your silly granny I loved you more than you ever knew, but i have such good memories of you baby, you are in my heart and you will always be there. Some of my best memories of us is the boat cruise together, and our daytona trip. I will never forget the gentle hugs and pats on the back. and the I love you's. Chris i will never forget you. I miss you....and i am going to sign off now, but i will talk to you later.
Love,
Your Granny.
"My condolences to the family. No one should be taken from the world that young. I hope you are at peace Christopher."
Chris was a light in rough times. If you ever needed help, you could always count on him to stand by you thick and thin. Chris was always able to prove people wrong about him, and his sense of humor and ability to have fun was unmatched. Having been through a lot in life at a young age, he was wise beyond his years. Having grown up with him at school, I was able to see him mature from a young child into an honorable man, and from friend to cousin, all of which, I consider a deep honor. I would wish to do it over again and have him by our sides a lot longer, just to drive with him again, to laugh, to hug. I will never forget the times we had or the lessons you imparted. Chris, thank you for all the help you have provided to us over the years and never forget that we, and I, love you to the end of time. I miss you, but I know I'll see you again someday.
