George, Lorena & family my sincerest condolences to you.
Regards,
Brian

You were one of my best friends I've had. In middle school you were like a little brother to me. I remember rough housing with you at P.E. and after school. I still remember your dad coming to my dad's classroom and telling me I gotta be gentler to you. One of my favorite things about you was how bold and based you were. It was something I kind of admired and copied from you. You really contributed to my current personality I have today. I wish I hadn't lost your phone number and lost contact with you for a year. I am glad that I did manage to get in contact with you one last time and catch up with you in December though. I love you man, and while this news hurts incredibly, I can at least find solace knowing without a doubt you're up there in heaven. I just gotta hope I make it there too when my time comes.

Just wanted to stop by and express my support and my most sincere condolences. I am very, very sorry for your loss, this is absolutely heart breaking. Lorena, I am here if you need anything, just reach out. Take care and God bless.

Joe and I met Chris many years ago, when his parents went on a marriage encounter weekend and we took care of Chris. He was pretty young, polite and smart. I remember one incident in particular, Joe took him out to pay putt putt. When they returned home and Joe was parking car in garage. Chris asked Joe if he was Irish, he said no I’m Italian . Chris then asked why are you parking in this parking place. Joe bought sign for me. It read,Parking for Irish only! I can’t remember how old he was but he was young.  We will always remember that day with Chris

Words can't express how much I hurt for your loss.
My deepest condolences to you and your family.

It was only for a short time that our paths crossed that I got to know you, Christopher. But it was a significant meeting in the sense that I was able to reconnect with your dad, George, after more than 20 years since high school because of you.

Highly intelligent, soft-spoken yet astute in worldly understanding, affable, great smile, kind-hearted, good sense of humor, polite, great son, patient, dedicated... So many impressive words describe you and you will be greatly missed where you made a significant impact in this world through the people you’ve come in contact with and the impression you have made while amongst us. God bless.

And from his Army / Marine Corps friends; drinking and playing poker till all hours

Christopher,

You sound like an amazing young man. We did not have the pleasure of spending time and getting to know each other. You are now joined with your abuelito Salomon. Shine and watch over your parents and all of us. 

Con mucho Cariño

My heartfelt love and regret in the passing of your dear son, Christopher. I met him only a few times but recall every time to be filled with hope, curiosity and a powerful eagerness which energized our moments together. I remember his hallarious memes on social media, smart questions about the world and his easy laugh/smile.

Chris touched my life and I am grateful to have met/known him.

Chris was an amazing friend to my brother Marlon and I. When I first met him, it felt like I had known him for years because of his outgoing personality. Every time we hung out, it was so fun. He was the life of the party. He always made us laugh and made sure we had a smile on our faces. He would always check up on us to see if we needed help with school. Chris, thank you for being such an amazing friend to us. We’ll miss going adventures with you. I know you’ll be watching over us from heaven.

Durr Family,

My words can’t express how much I hurt for your loss. I just hope you find comfort in each other, your memories and faith that your son is walking with God and will be guiding you always.
My most sincere condolences.

Nena y Jorge,

Nuestro más sentido pésame. En estos momentos tan difíciles le pedimos a Dios y la virgencita que les de fortaleza para soportar este dolor tan grande. Christopher seguirá siendo una estrella brillante desde donde se encuentre. Siempre tendrán um ángel más cuidándolos. Les mando un fuerte abrazo lleno de fuerzas.

Con mucho Cariño

My adopted son (my son Joshua’s best buddy) my family and I love you so much and we’ll miss you a whole lot. Thank you for your kind heart and for always checking up on how we were doing. I’ll always remember the good memories we shared. From my wedding, to your high school graduation, and from my kid’s birthdays and even the Super Bowl. You were always here with us sharing your smile and company. You were always respectful, kind and willing to listen to my advice. You made us all proud with your determination and strived to be a great son, friend, student, artist and best of all a good Christian. I know that you’re are always going continue to watch over us from heaven next to mother Mary and Jesus. Always love you my niño until we meet again.
