Chris has been a friend of mine since sometime around 2007. He was always amused by the way we met. I found him on Myspace through a random search for a "nerdy" guy. Since Chris had the word "nerd" written on his profile, his picture came up in the search results! I messaged him, and our friendship took off from there. He always laughed about how I found him because I liked nerds. haha 

Chris was just an amazing person. I have never met anyone like him in my life. He is one of a kind, and can never be replaced. His spirit continues to live in all of us who knew him. May you RIP my dear friend. I will see you again one day!

My heart goes out to the family, I never met Chris, but he is related to me, his grandmother, Aunt Jennie to me, is my fathers sister.  Chris mom, Marianne is my cousin.  It is so sad that is life was taken at such a young age.  Prayers to the family.

Chris was an amazing and unique person who left a strong impression on everyone who knew him. He was his own person, marching to the beat of his own drum. He was wise way beyond his years and I learned much from him. He had a keen sense of humor which I really enjoyed. Marianne, Ray, Gina and Robert, I can't begin to know your pain but I am praying that God will give you the strength you need to cope with this tragedy. Chris's spirit will never die.

I never met Chris face-to-face, but I'd known him online for 10 years or so. We hadn't talked a whole lot lately, but once in a while we would talk about music--he even let me record some vocals with some of his music. He was a great, brilliant guy, and I am glad I knew him.

My prayers are with you all in this time of need.

The love in your family flows strong and deep, leaving you memories of Christopher to treasure and keep. With all my love and deepest sympathy.

Words cannot describe the deep sorrow we have for you Ray and Marianne. I know losing a child has got to be the hardest thing in the world. Especially knowing the way it happened. Kenny and I pray for deep strength and love in the Lord for you both and the remainder of the family. Not having seen Chris in a number of years I know if he was anything like the two of you he was an awesome young man. He is definitely handsome. May God surround you with His loving arms and keep you strong. We love you both and please let us know if there is anything we can do. God bless to you all!!! With love, The Grady's.

Darling, you are so missed.  You were a wonderful son, and brother.  You had a talent beyond talent in your art and music.

Love you and miss you sweetie,mama
