I can't believe it's been three years since you went missing, Chris! I'll never forget those fateful 11 days where the country united on Facebook to bring you back.
I thought I'd let you and your family know that whenever my mates and I go to Download festival we take extra safety precautions such as spare phone batteries, and identify meeting points if any of us get separated.
I hope this may bring a little comfort knowing that there may be some lives saved from your passing. Take care dude, rest in peace.

Dear Chris, I didn't know you but the impact of your death has effected me like it would a close Friend, those long nights you were missing I prayed for your safe return & very sadly & strangely at this time of year with the warm nights & full moon I find myself thinking of you on that last fateful night & I can't escape the very deep sadness all around especially on the anniversary & something somewhere has me looking out of the window at the bright moon sadly reminding me as it was the nights when you were missing & I can't stop wondering & thinking about you & asking why ? What happened that night. It's so sad but even worse not to have closure too, I feel for your friends & family so much & I can't imagine the pain they must be going through.
Keep smiling Chris your smile impacted so many people & touched many many hearts, I hope you are looking down smiling on your family & watching & guiding them. Beautiful souls like yours live on & stay close to loved ones. You will be eternally young & happy in spirit & having plenty of parties in heaven,. You will always be special.  God bless to you Chris & all your family & friends. Xxx

Sweet Stranger

March 14, 2016

Chris, when I heard about you going missing I thought we would find you or you would come home, but it wasn't to be. My heart broke when they found you. I was with friends on Facebook searching and desperately trying to help spread the word to find you. I have a daughter the same age as you, and it hit home to me just how vulnerable all our kids are no matter what age they are. You touched my heart sweet stranger, God bless you Chris, always in my thoughts X

how weong was I

July 27, 2015

I worked the night shift at tuckers solicitors.  i left work in the morning and your picture was up at the bus stop in Piccadilly.  I remeber looking at it and thinking it was a bit soon as you hadnt been missing long.

your never forgotten

February 15, 2014

Everyone here still questions why you had to go so young, why you had to leave all you'd worked hard for. everyone misses you, everyone still wishes you were still here with us.
i dont think a day will ever come where we will forget yopu christopher, you've imprinted on all who came to know you.
ill certainly never forget you and ill certainly never stop missing you.
rest in peace angel
i hope your still smiling up there.
