He will be lovingly remembered by his grandparents Carmen Gomez, Joe Gomez, Miguel Diaz, Hermelinda Valenzuela Salinas and Roberto Salinas.
Christian enjoyed playing baseball from a young age onto his high school years. He was an avid Dodgers fan and an all around gifted athlete. He was someone you could take to the fair because he was sure to win for you those stuffed animals. If Chris was on your team, any team, you were sure to win. In addition to his athleticism, he had some amazing dance moves. He was a smooth dancer that could entertain you through any song.
He had a smile that could brighten anyone’s day. He enjoyed being around others. If you met Christian, he considered you his friend. He was always looking for ways to make everyone laugh. He didn’t let a day go by without letting you know how much he appreciated you.
Christian was always down for going out or joining in on any adventure. He especially loved the beach. He would never pass up an opportunity to lay on the sand or swim in the ocean.
He had a love affair with food. Every meal was savored and thoroughly enjoyed. Each meal was considered to be the best he had ever had and every bite was followed by a sound of approval.
Christian will be deeply missed by everyone that knew him including his aunts, Veshalica Robledo, Blanca Salinas, Martha Salinas and his uncles Miguel De Los Rios, Roque Salinas, Robert Salinas and his many other aunts, uncles and cousins.
