Chris I miss you everyday and I know we will meet again. You brought me so much laughter and happiness when you were here. Remember that time I got mad because you said we were gonna be like Jack and Gay Ann? Well I wouldn't get mad at you now because that's exactly what I would want. I would of gotten to Boston sooner if I would of known. There is a song by Sam Redden that I'm dedicating to you. It reminds me of you because he says I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you. I couldn't get to you fast enough to talk you out of what happened, but I love you forever Chris. I will see you soon angel in Heaven. I also am writing a book and dedicating to you. My heart will always be a bit broken but I will make it:)

I only recently learned about Chris's passing.  We lost touch after he left Austin, TX.  We became really good friends during 2000-2001.  He was one of the first people to befriend me when I moved to Austin.  He was sweet, kind, loving, deeply emotional.  And had some demons just as we all did during that time.  I was really sad and heartbroken to learn of his passing.  Chris was someone I always wanted to get back in touch with and be fast friends again just like old times.  We always had fun times being out and about in Austin.  I miss those days.

My deepest sympathy to the Truax and Bigggs Families.  I remember Chris as a witty, sweet kid in Houston - and later as a kind, thoughtful young man visiting his Grandparents in Pittsburgh.  My heart breaks for all of Chris's friends, family and loved ones in your time of sorrow and loss.  May he be at peace - Many prayers...

My heart goes out to the Truax family and everyone who was touched by this special man.  I will always remember his great charisma that lit up a room, nonstop humor, and his caring nature.

Oh Chris ,where have you gone ?
Far away?  Far away?  
No, your still here !
In our hearts ! In our hearts !!

bodyI guess our first memories of Chris were when he swam with our girls on the Atascocita CC swim team. I remember Melissa coming home and telling us how funny her new friend was and that he made her laugh continuously. Chris lit up any room he entered and infused it with fun because of his infectious laugh, crazy sense of humor, and ever present smile. He and Melissa lived at each other's houses while growing up and we always felt he was a part of the family. He also became very dear friends with Heidi and Kristen. Kristen looked up to him like an older brother.

I dont think we will ever know a more sensitive and caring soul. He had a way of making those around him feel so important and appreciated. Our whole family loved him and feel so grateful that he touched our lives. We will miss him so much. 

Our deepest sympathies to the family. Try to hang on to all the good memories because there are a whole treasure trove of them.

Tom Roush,

Truax Family, 
I am deeply sorry you've lost Chris. I have many fond memories of growing up down the street. He always brought a smile and positive energy to all of us kids. What he has accomplished has made the world a better place.  I am so sorry he is gone and am so thankful he left you all with great memories. Most Sincerely,

Rest in Peace Chris. My deepest condolences to the family. You will be missed.

Chris, you will truly be missed.  I will always remember your happy, smiling face. To the Truax family, you are all in our prayers as you go through this sad time in your lives.

"I have passed a mountain peak and my soul is soaring in the firmament of complete and unbound freedom;
I am far, far away, my companions, and the clouds are hiding the hills from my eyes.
The valleys are becoming flooded with an ocean of silence, and the hands of oblivion are engulfing the roads and the houses;
The prairies and fields are disappearing behind a white specter that looks like the spring cloud, yellow as the candlelight and red as the twilight.
The songs of the waves and the humans of the streams are scattered, and the voices of the throngs reduced to silence;
And I can hear naught but the music of eternity in exact harmony with the spirit's desires.
I am cloaked in full whiteness;
I am in comfort; 
I am in peace."

Many prayers,

Liz,
My heart goes out to you and your family.

I worked with Chris in Corpus Christi and he was a wonderful, funny, energetic guy. Kept up through facebook.  I will miss his zany humor.  I am so sorry for the heartbreak you must be going through.  I will pray for all of you.

Dear Truax Family and Friends,

I am so sorry to hear about Chris! I only remember good things about him when he and I met in Boston all those years ago. I remember how much fun he was to hangout with, and also to have a great heart-to-heart conversation with when times troubled him or any of his friends. I'm sorry for the kind of loss he left us with and please know that I have always loved him as a friend (even if we were hundreds of miles apart). He was such a great guy! All of the pictures of him remind me how happy he seemed and how good he always looked. He truly looks happy and filled with joy when he was with you all and with all his friends. 

Once again, I'm so sorry to hear what happened, and wish you all my best.

My condolences.

Sincerely,
Alex Zora

Please accept my deepest condolences.  Chris was a good man with a big heart.  I wish I knew how hard each day was getting for him.  I will always have nothing but the fondest memories of Chris.  May he rest in peace.

My dear friend may your soul rest in peace. I just recently received a message from him & I will keep it always. You were a GREAT administrator @ Retama Manor NH in Corpus Christi & I always remember your beautiful smile & sense of humor.  Always in our thoughts friend.
