Myself and wife Patsy are praying for you.
Jenifer I am so sorry for your loss. Thoughts and prayers are with you all. I don’t know if you remember me but we worked together at the VA years ago. I remember him coming to visit you. Prayers
Ms. Jeni, Ms. Lou and family – I worked with his Grandmother, Lou, for many years and had the privilege of learning about Christopher from an early age in his life and the many surgeries and general struggles he and the family faced. I enjoyed meeting him on several occasions. He was one of the many bright lights in Ms. Lou’s eyes and heart. Much love and many prayers to the family.
I will miss u in my heart

Chris…
You fought so hard to stay… To be here with us. I thank you for the time you gave us all… The time you gave your baby boy… The baby boy we were blessed with. You left too soon love! Know that we miss you and love you so very much!!! A part of you will thrive here… Nothin’ in this world, heaven or hell, can soothe the break we all feel…but we hold on tight to all the memories you gifted us.
I am so very proud of the strength you showed every day even when the pain was too much to bare. Your fight was and will always be an amazing accomplishment! You went through so much… As much as we miss you, I am accepting you are no longer in agony.
I know it cant rain forever, but it sure feels like it!!
You are always apart of me, always have been. Little will know you through memories, photos and the few videos we have.
No words nor actions can console the broken that weep for you, there is comfort knowing you are with Grampa Gary, Zechariah, Aunt Sue and our grammas.
Sleep well Me Amore…
I love you for always…
Your “Lil Indian gurl” 💚
Dear Dad, I’m sorry we never got to officially have a friendship I’m sure you were a good man and that you are in heaven I know I never made an effort to visit but life can get in the way deep down I know I love you now rest with the angels sweet sweet man, love your daughter.
As tumultuous as my childhood was at times, some of my happiest moments were with you. Teaching me how to ollie with the skateboard you bought me and playing with tech-decks around the counters and tables. Putting me on your shoulders so high in the air and walking to the cornerstore. I wish I’d had the chance to spend more time to get to know you more. I remember your kindness and your smile. I miss you, daddy-o.
