Remembering Chris

When we sit back and remember our friend Chris, we remember his smile, his love of food, and his love of friends. If you called Chris, he was always there to listen and help you through whatever you were facing.

He was a fixer and a helper. He was a good man.

Like all of us, Chris had his struggles. Unfortunately, he did not make it. While we want to remember Chris in a positive light, we also need to recognize the gravity of the darkness he faced so that other best friends, uncles, fathers, and brothers do not suffer the same fate.

We need to make sure we listen, reach out, and help people get support right away. The struggle will not end if we do not connect them with someone skilled to help. There are many people out there struggling in ways similar to Chris, but there was only one Chris.

We will always miss him, and we will always remember him. Hopefully, the next time we meet on the other side, we will be able to help you.

We love you, and we miss you.
