Brittany, Ron, and Donna-
I’m sorry it took me so long to sign this, but don’t think I forgot. I loved Chris more than anyone i’ve ever known, and I know he felt the same way-that’s why I’m glad he is in such a better place now…i hope you are all doing great…love yall
I am very sorry to hear of your loss. I hadn’t really seen Chris lately, but I do remember riding the school bus with him. I lived on Brickyard throughout my school years. He was a wonderful young man and I know how much you miss him. He is in a truly better place now and I’m sure he’s watching over you guys.
I can’t believe it’s been a year since we lost Chris it seems like just yesterday we were at Sander’s hanging out (which is the last time I saw him) It gives me great comfort to know that he is in a better place now and that we will all have the chance to see him again one day. Ride on Chris and we will meet again…..
I have shared many great memories with Chris. Most of which were filled with laughter and good times. I’ll never forget his radiant smile and kind heart. I’ll see you again one day Chris…
Peeler was a great man. He will be greatly missed. I find comfort in knowing that Peeler is with Andy, Coleen, and Sky. And im sure Peeler and Sky are rocking the pearly gates.
Much love Peeler. We will meet agian

I know there is no words that can express the heartache you and your wife are experiencing now and you have my deepest sympathy. If there is anything I could possibly do please feel free to call me. (670-1532) You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Dear Ron, Donna, Sandra and Aunt Frances,

I just wanted to say how sorry I am to hear about Chris. I hadn’t seen him in awhile but he is in a lot of my childhood memories. He was in most of my classes at Emma. He was a wonderful young man and he will never be forgotten.
