i remember when the church used to do ‘trunk or treat’ for the neighborhood, and all of us who went to Desert Palms would go. the church would have a haunted house in the basement, one of my friends bailed on me so chris volunteered to go with me. I was terrified to go down there, and of course, he was not. I was holding onto him the entire time, putting my face on his shoulder so i wouldn’t get scared. He lead me through the entire basement with his head held high, while mine never lifted up. That’s one of the things i love about him the most, he didn’t show fear, and he cared about others, even if it meant to take his dorky childhood friend into a haunted house so i wouldn’t have to go alone. I will never forget him, he truly did save me, and i wish i could’ve done the same. 

I already wrote a memory and this probably won’t be the last one I write .... when I met Christian in kindergarten I never thought he would be such an important and influential part of my life , he was just a boy with cooties back then. Later through the years he became one of my closest friends. He was such a adventurous, kind , and goofy kid . He deserved the world . I truly am sorry for the people who didn’t get the chance to meet him or feel his incredible energy. I miss him every day and will mourn his absence indefinitely. Screaming LLC always and forever 🤞🏼🕊
Sending condolences and love to the family 💙


I’ve already sent a memory but I want to send another one. Christian is a very smart, goofy, crazy person. That always made sure everyone had a smile on their face. It’s the little things Christian did that made it so special. Such as coming into the classroom and it’s him and LaQuay start off singing “young wild Nd free.” Nd everyone would join Nd the whole class room would sing it loud. He’ll forever be missed Nd cared for. I hope he does fly high. Rest peacefully Christian💙🕊 we love and miss you! Never far from our thoughts! 

i don’t even know if i am gonna be able to stop sending these memories. you gave me the most amazing memorable year ever. i have never loved anyone has much as you made me love you. i am so happy i got to be loved by you, make you happy, smile. you deserved literally the world and you didn’t get it. i’m so sorry angel. i don’t know why heaven took our living walking angel on earth. they couldn’t wait for you. you were way to special baby. it’s okay, when we all meet with you again you gonna have the biggest smiles and hugs awaiting us. your family and friends loved you more than you knew. you touch everyone you even talked to. people who haven’t met you see videos and already know how you were and how you were full of life. how you took risks, protected everyone, cared for everyone, gave people your love who didn’t deserve it. the fact that you are gone i know breaks everyone’s heart. you were a bright shinning light in our life’s that led us to happiness. you would walk me up in the middle of the night hungry asking if i wanted to eat i would say no and fall back asleep you uber eats food and said “get up babe i got you chicken nuggets and fries and your soda you need to eat” no matter what you said to me it always touched my heart. coming over every morning to make sure me and my sister got to school okay, walking us home before you went to do your plans you made for the day. giving me all your good hoodies even though you was cold. sometimes when i was upset christian would hug me and say “baby don’t cry..” i don’t know how someone who did so much and had so much coming and was going to change the world gets taken from us. you are at peace and a beautiful amazing angel watching over everyone. christian it hurts so much to say goodbye to you. thank you for letting me fall in love with you so young. you showed me soo much. baby rest easy my beautiful angel💙💙🕊

I grew up with Christian when we were kids he was always the one i would go to hang out with out of everyone else he was funny kind and smart he had a good future ahead of him but it had to be cut short he will definitely be missed #LLC🕊

I grew up with Christian , we went to same school together for most my life . I saw all of his phases his nerd phase , his player phase, his hair dyeing phase and many more. Christian would call me his “lul sis” he always had my back no matter what happened. Christian could always tell if I was upset even if I was trying to hide it. He would ask me what’s wrong and give me a hug and then he would make a dumb joke that he knew would make me laugh and put a smile on my face . Christian was so kind and caring to everyone he met ,he  impacted my life in so many ways . I can only try to be as  good a person he was . I will never forget him . LLC🕊

I love you Chris forever and always 💙



Even though his time was cut short he lived life to the fullest.He was a such a wonderful person and touched so many lives.He will never be forgotten and will continue to live on in us and our memories.

May the wind be always at your back.May the sun shine warm upon your face, and until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand.

Christian, you were the first friend that I had made in kindergarten. You made every day an adventure whether it had been dressing up in funny costumes or climbing trees near the park by the school. Unfortunately, we had joined different friendship groups and soon drifted apart. Ever since your passing I have beat myself up everyday for not staying close with you, as I thought I could have done something to help you. But, a wise man had once told me that I shouldn’t morn on what could have been, but instead recall the positive impact you had to the community. It had been your optimistic and confident energy that gave life and happiness to the people around you. You deserved so much better. And, your memory will live on forever through both your friends and family. You are loved by many and will never be forgotten 
Rest easy, 
Nelly 💙🕊

I remember you scaring the crap out of me doing those flips into the pool...lol I love you kid!!!

He was a very strong and loving boy and it was amazing to be a small part of the life he lived. I will forever miss and love the time we had. I want all of you to know I will be here for you from here on out. You know how to reach me and I will always be ready and willing. I love you all s ok much. 

                                               Uncle.

I love you to the moon and back nephew... till we meet again xoxoxo Love Always & Forever  Tia Leeza

One of the only memory's I have is when Christian had his friend Gregory over, and Christian had something made out of wood and was hitting the couch that Gregory was on and then Gregory moves his leg and Christian hits it and I remember Gregory being in so much pain.

Christian was smart, kind, & brave. Everyone who knew him, loved him. I was blessed by his presence at Desert Palms as his teacher & cross country coach. As he got older, he was still respectful & would say “Hi, Ms. Palmisano!” every time I saw him, with that contagious smile of his. He would always ask if he could help with anything, & I could trust him to do it. He was a leader, & all of his peers looked up to him. He could make the whole class laugh, & also help settle them down. Anytime I’d let him, he would help a classmate finish their assignment or comfort them if they needed to cool off.  He was so good to his friends. He would never hesitate to have their backs. At practice, they would beg to do relay races so that they could all be on a team of their own & be competitive & cheer each other on. He was a good athlete & was so excited to finally get to be in a school sport & wear a jersey. & most of all, have more time getting to do something with his friends. 

I could always call on him to answer a question, even if he didn’t have his hand raised, because I knew he knew the answer. He was a thoughtful writer, & school work came easy to him. I remember on aim high night when we did a wax museum for the American Revolution, he showed up in a full costume. We were so impressed. Most of the kids didn’t want to do it, but he thought it was funny & couldn’t help but smile. He made it fun for everyone there, like he did everything..

I wish he were still here with his family & friends. I wish he could go to high school, & keep having so much fun with all the people he loved the most..doing what he did best, making everyone happy. I wish he could accomplish everything he ever dreamed to do. He really was something special & made this world a better place. I don’t doubt he’s doing the same thing in heaven, watching over all of  you. May his sweet soul, Rest In Peace.

Al though we have never met but have seen some funny videos of u and ur funny sister but I can tell ur family was very proud of u ur memories will live on for a life time r.i.p buddy

I didn't know Christian very well, but I remember seeing him for the first time as a little boy. He loved to show off when I video chatted with his mom.

I remeber going to raw hide with my nehpew Christian. He wanted to climb the rock wall,he was excited to show me first.  Then he wanted to race me up the wall, well I tried to beat him three times but was unsuccessfull. We also sifted for gold while there it was a very fun and memorable time. 

One time in 5th grade I told Chris and Jesse to do a front flip and them tryna be cool and act like they can do it they both did it and the same time and Chris landed on his head and Jesse landed on his back and they both were in so much pain and everyone thought it was so funny😂😂

One time in science class, we had a free day and watched Rango. Chris and I were both so tired that day and he turned towards me and laid  his head on my desk and fell asleep. I put my head next to his and did the same thing. I woke up when the bell rang and he was still passed out, so I woke him up and he had lines all over his head from the desk. We were both still sleepy, and I was about to leave, but he pulled me and said “So you were gonna just not give me a hug?”. We hugged and he told me to stay safe and he would see me tomorrow and I said the same. I think that was the best hug he ever gave me, and everyone knows that Christians hugs could probably cure depression. I love and miss you Chris. I hope when I see you again, I can get a hug just like the one you gave me in science class

Christian was such a great young man and when I met him I knew were were gonna become best friends but didn’t expect to see him everyday and expect to wake up to his face knocking on his ornisaacs door to see them. Christian always made me happy when he sees I’m down he would always bring me up one way or another. My brother Christian did everything with me after a while and it got to the point where I didn’t wanna do things without him being involved. Christain would always take me on family trips with him. So I would to . Christian also introduce to Isaac who I now consider a brother because I wake up to him everyday too and now and forever. You’ll forever be remembered Christian Villareal. I love you christian

P.J. here,
I remember spending a lot of time with Christian, from the trip to Disneyland when he and chance got covered in pudding on the way there as small children. To when I last really talked to him at my wedding and he was a center of attention on the dance floor and playing with my niece. I remember living with him and how he was brat and said I wasn't his boss despite being the oldest person home at the time. He's always been a brat, but I miss him. I'll never forget him. I love you Christian. I'll always be with you.

Christian I dont you that well  but I am your moms friend.  My kids went to Desert Palms and my youngest son knows you! He speaks very highly of you! You were taken too soon. May you fly high with the angels. You will be missed but not forgotten. Always in our hearts! 



I'm never going to forget the time when we were riding on the bus, coming back from a basketball game and we were bummed because we lost. It wasn't until Chris brought up our spirits and said "dang Ms. Busdriver gone gangsta!" Because she ran a red light. I'm never going to forget the great times Chris gave us and how happy he made all of us.


Christian will forever be remembered in my memory for his outgoing energy and effortless kindness. I grew up around Christian when he was a young boy and he was never afraid to do what he needed to make you laugh.  Though I was older, I still enjoyed being around him because he truly was a great energy to be around. My heart goes out to the whole family, and I pray for comfort through these tough times. 
With So Much Love , Kaela Yip 

Christian was such a loving soul.  I will cherish our conversations. He was very mature and we had the most amazing talks. I loved him like a son and he will forever be in my heart. Christian had such charisma and always lit up any room up he walked into it. He was a special young man who i will miss forever. I love you Christian!

Last year my friend came up to me and told " Christian when  he wears his Cortezes they look like clown shoes with them on" I never notice until I was wearing mine and saw him by the bathroom and  I told him "dang Chris you and me have clown feet" -Adam Lujan

I remember when me and him first met he told me when I was frustrated don't do nothing that nots worth it.

Christian... I do not know where to begin, growing up with you as my little cousin was a blessing. I'll never forget the numerous days of hanging out, talking, swimming, and honestly just being kids. I know I haven't been able to see you a lot for the past 5 years and I am sorry for that... However, I want you to know you will forever have a huge place in my heart, I will forever carry your spirit with me and I "pinky promise" to be the best role model for Patience! I wish you were still here and it should not have ended like this... Fly high angel! <3 <3 <3 

I never knew Christian too personally, but man, he was an absolute legend. Every room he entered, he would glow with kindness and charisma. He was the type of guy you could talk to about anything, and he would always cheer you up no matter what. He would give me "Kenneth hugs" all the time in I believe 1st or 2nd grade, those would always make my day somehow! Then he would always do the same thing to my little brother years later at breakfast 😂. He made our years at school a much brighter place with his humor and openness, and he would always stand up for his friends, classmates, and especially his brother no matter who or what. I really wish I had the chance to say goodbye before we were all separated, but I know you're resting well now. I'm gonna miss you, bud. 💙

When I was in 8th grade Christian and my sister Nelly were in the same class in 5th grade. Christian was always the kid that all the older kids were cool with. So I told christian if he ever finds out that my sister has a boyfriend or if I guy is trying to get with my sister to tell me because I’m super protective 😂. And one day I went to the park and Christian found out my sister had a boyfriend so he came racing to me exited to tell me what happened and he was even instigating and pointed out the kid who was dating my sister and he told me to go beat him up😂❤️ That was my favorite memory of Christian. I even remember going to cholla park every day and if Christian wasn’t there the park seemed quiet and boring but when Christian was at the park there was always something interesting and fun going on 😄. I’ll never forget him.

When Christian was in 5th grade running his first track meet he was texting and running.

My dearest grandson Christian you will always be the best son, brother, nephew, cousin, friend and grandson  you will never be forgotten, we will all talk about you forever, your smile will never be forgotten, the love u have for others will never be forgotten, happy heavenly birthday Texas Nana loves u we all love you  

We were at the mall one day and I had bought some all white hollister sandals and bought Christian a few things and a few days after I got them, me isaac Eric and christain and Isaacs brother and his friend were all at Isaacs and one night I was laying in the couch and I hear someone say “Donovin you better get up and get your shoes someone’s writing on them” and I got up and seen that Christian has drawn some penis’s all over both of them and when I approached him I asked why he did it and he said idk so I pushed him and he pushed me back then we just starting fighting and when we were fighting Christian had first pushed me off the hoverboard and while I was getting up he had me in a position on the floor where he can get on top of me and start banging on my head and then I got up and started throwing my punches 

When I was crying about what someone told me one time. And he was there for me, and gave me the biggest hug. Told me to keep my head up. And not listen to the haters then told me “I love you sis” he was/is my brother. Always protected me like I was his sister. 

I remember the time that Christian and Skylar challenge Joe in my backyard and Joe was giving the boys a run for their money. I also remember Christian when he was little telling Chase that I wouldn't mess with her (me), she's mean. Christian had a big smile on his face the whole time.  He was very loved! 

My best memory with my brother Christian is when we always played video games together and he would always kill my character 

I had the pleasure of knowing Christian, for a short amount of 
time over at Isaac's house.   He was  kind, generous and had 
a huge heart.   Over the last 6 months I spent alot of time with 
him and got to know him,  we spent alot of time talking about 
 his future.  He had great plans and knew what he 
wanted.  I love you Christian and will never forget you !
You were taken too soon and had much to give.   I am so sorry
this happened to you.    Thank you to his parents for sharing your
son.  He loved and respected his parents and family.  They meant everything to him. 
Every time I drink a cherry coke I will be thinking of you 
See you in the Stars

I remember when christain would come into the bedroom almost every day to check on me. He would always come in saying Aunt Tab do u need food or something to drink! He was such a sweet kid.  He was really excited when i had my daughter Destiny he waited a long time to get to see her but when he finally got to his little smile lit up the room. 

Christian, you will be forever missed and u r loved by so many people. I remember when i first met u thru ur mama and you were so happy to always get the candy and treats and snacks i always brought. Then i give u guys extra stuff and mama was like "no more"
You are such a smart loving person with a big heart and that bright smile. Fly high with the angels Christian!! RIP KIDDO

You were loved so much ,Christian!! I’ll miss seeing you around 💙 

I really don’t remember christian as much but I did know him when we where little he was the happiest person ever and made people laugh and put smiles on everybody’s face he was a good person he brought so many happiness to his friends he didn’t deserve what happened but he is know in a better place and not in pain christian was a good friend and I wish I got to know him but when I did know him he was always there for people . LLC💙🕊 rest easy christian💗🕊

I remember in the second grade I had a seizure right before lunch .. christian noticed I was acting funny and started walking up to me ...  I started falling and as all the kids backed away christian was the only one who stayed close to me and caught me so I didn’t  hit my head  .. he always had the biggest heart and smile on his face .. there was never a time I did not see a smile on his face .. he has done so many good things for people .. although he deserved so much better and had such a great life ahead of him he is in a good place and in gods hands and is now watching over us .. LLC💙🕊

Christian you were such a big part of our family, such a good friend to Isaac,  and a big brother to Samuel and Abigail, you always responded to them when they would talk you, you would walk Sam to circle k  when he would ask you helped him with his school work played Xbox with him. You taught Abigail all her best dance moves and taught her to rap, when you made dinner for them when I was at work, even when you filled the house with smoke cause you cooked everything on high.  I am so grateful to your parents for giving us the time we had with you. We knew to include you in all your family trips to the beach, the lakes, the drive-in to play in the snow.  If Christian wasn’t going Isaac wasn’t going. I remember how excited you guys were when you got to work with me at Red Lobster. You made me very proud you were a great worker. There is no doubt you would have done good things in your life. I will miss you everyday. I love you Christian.

Christian , although a bit spicy at times, always had a sweet and gentle kindness about him whenever we had a conversation. He had true compassion for others, and would passionately defend them, He was quite a leader. Christian often sneaked into my classroom just waiting for me to notice he was there when really he was supposed to be in math or science. Lol. That boy had a rambunctious twinkle in his eye. I am so saddened by this tragic loss. My heart goes out to his entire family and his huge group of friends. Keep spreading his light.  Don’t let his spirit be forgotten. 

I had the opportunity to have Christian in my P.E. for the last two years. He loved to compete against his friends. The leadership skills that he possessed was amazing to watch and made my job a joy. I remember our talks that we would have walking to and from class. One day he saw me doing the Rubik's cube and asked me how to solve it. I told him to check out this site and give it a try. The weekend passed and he came to school and showed me not only that he could solve it, but he can solve it faster. He was a great kid and I will always remember him.

I had the privilege of being your teacher in math for half a year. You were such a talented and bright student. I always enjoyed chatting with you. You had such a bright future as well as a bright personality. You were taken far to early. You will be greatly missed by everyone. 

I am so sorry. Although, Christian and I only went to school for a certain amount of time, I can't help but think about all the fun times we had. Him and I had every class today, and I would always look forward to seeing him everyday.  He could've made the simplest joke ,and it would've  made the entire class burst out with laughter. I'm really going to miss him, and he didn't deserve to pass at such a young age. I could tell he had so much potential, and he wanted to do amazing things in life but sadly never had the chance.. you deserve the world, we all miss you so much. 

I’m gonna miss you kid. I promised to look after you and I’m sorry I didn’t. You had a bright future and it was taken too soon. much love kid you were a little brother to me.
