I’m so sorry to hear this tragic news today. I always enjoyed seeing Chris walking his white puppy and saying hello to us. RIP Chris.
I send my most heartfelt condolences. I am heartbroken to hear this news as chris was a close friend. I am going to miss spending time with chris, playing basketball, spending time in nature, and talking. Throughout all the time I spent around chris I cannot remember a time where he was not positive and of good company. Rest easy chris.
Chris always will continue to radiate his positive energy through spirit, he will always hold a deep place in all of our hearts. A friend like him only comes once in a lifetime, and I’m glad to have got to spend a quality time with him while he was here with us. May his family and loved ones experience God's blessings and peaceful touch. May he Rest in Paradise and be with God.
As a close friend of Chris, this is absolutely devastating to experience and I offer my whole heart of sympathy to Chris’s family. Chris was always a great friend and never did anyone wrong. I greatly appreciated his presence and all the memories of sprinting out of school everyday to beat the rush, hanging out, and playing basketball. His positive and easy going energy will be greatly missed and will hold a special place in our hearts. God bless Chris to rest peacefully.
I am deeply saddened by the tragic and unexpected loss of our wonderful friend, Chris. Chris was a kind, caring, and inspirational young man who always lit up the room with just his presence. I genuinely don’t think I have ever seen Chris wrong anyone or even complain. I will greatly miss the memories and time I spent with Chris from riding in the Versa, to playing basketball, to simply just hanging out and having conversations with one another. He truly brought joy to all of those who were lucky enough to be his friend. We will all miss him deeply and my love and prayers are with Chris and his family at this very sad time.
I met Chris in middle school, ever since then Chris has been one of my best friends. Chris would occasionally drive me to school and we would hang out after school, we did everything together. I will cherish all of my time spent with Chris whether that was playing basketball, going to parties, going to watch basketball or football games, and even simply just driving around and talking. Chris was one of the most kind-hearted, funny, and peaceful people I have ever met. There was nobody else like him a true one-of-a-kind guy. I will never forget Chris, he was a major part of my life and an inspiration to me. My condolences go out to his family, rest in peace Chris.
I can’t believe it. I still think you are here with us. I’ll always remember the good times going on crazy adventures and laughing till it hurt. No one can replace the energy and happiness you brought us and all the memories we’ve created together. Rest In Peace brother you’ll always be a dear friend.
Koko we love you even we haven’t seen you for a very long time. I always remember the time that we had with JC playing. Grandma and Tito Torboy always remember you and JC even you don’t remember us. I hope you are in better place with our Lord Jesus Christ in Heaven. You may Rest In Peace my Nephew love Tito Vanni, GJ, Gia , Georgina
Chris was apart of some of my favorite memories of my adolescent years. I had gotten to know Chris more right around the beginning of high school and he was pretty reserved and quiet. But when he was with friends of ours, he was talkative and always made whatever we were doing even more of a fun time. Whether it was trips to the mall, playing basketball together, going to Six flags, spontaneous road trips or even just sitting around and talking about random stuff and sharing laughs and memories we had shared. It was always a good time spent when Chris was around, and I will always hold on to all of those fond memories. My deepest condolences to all of the family and friends and loved ones of Christopher. May he rest in peace and be remembered by us all.
I miss you Chris you’ll always be my favorite brother. We’ll always leave dinner for you. One day I’ll play BO2 with u again and you’ll always find the coolest tricks and give me the best guns because you’re a good brother. Im sorry I was such a brat when I was little but it made good memories. I love you Chris I’m sorry I never said it enough.
It may be a week late but the few times I met Chris was enough for me to know that he was a good man, he was my best friends brother. The very few times we talked he was a very kind and funny young man, he was raised amazingly and I wish my condolences to the family.
