Now two lives are senslessly destroyed,  Chris' and the man that committed murder.  This is becoming an all to common sign of our times.  My prayers to Chris' family in their time of loss.

So sorry to hear this. I hate when this happens to good people for no reason.

My condolences to the family and friends of Chris, a life way too young to be taken.... Even tho I never knew him these words just came to me and I felt the need to share them here

Today we all remember you,
And bid you one last goodbye,
Celebrate the life you’ve had
And maybe have a cry.

You’ll never be forgotten Chris,
We will just close our eyes and see,
Your smiling face and feel your love
And you’ll be close to  us.

You had such a short  life,
So many have so less,
It was your time, the Angels came,
And placed you with the best.

Our team....glad they didn't 'Bungle' it...They have real heart.

Glad they got comfort from our thoughts...that's a prayer answered, right?

Sorry to hear the sad news. Will continue to pray for Chris' family.

This thread is so old, I don't know if you guys will even find it buried... but I wanted to mention something that I forgot to on this thread... a few months after his passing, Chris' family came out in the news saying that Chris was going to be a dad... apparently his girlfriend was newly pregnant when he died.  She and the family knew at the time, but kept it quiet at first because of all the local media craziness.  She has since had the baby, he's about 6 months old now.  My wife and I have seen him out with his mother a few times, and although we don't know her, we of course recognize them from all the media.  He's a gorgeous little boy, and I'm sure his dad is looking down on him proudly.  Thanks again for all the support you guys showed this family.

Some small blessings will grow...

Thanks for this update!

thanks for letting us know.... I'm sure it's a comfort to Chris' parents that he in some way still lives on in his son....
