Christian was a straight A student, obtaining his high school diploma with some college under his belt. Because of his creativity, he desired to attend the Chicago School of Arts. He was a gifted individual. His potential was so evident, he excelled in everything he touched. His smile was second to none. His ability to engage with you was so illuminating.
Chris, you were a rising star, but in reality, you were a shooting star and you know how they suddenly change course in the sky, and if you blink, you'll miss it. We saw you Chris, we still see you, and feel you and love you and miss you dearly. Love, Auntie Mush.
To my beloved Christian, I named you Christian because I always knew that you would exude Christ-like character and that you did very well! Chris, your departure from this life was only a transition into the realm in which you were created for. You left us so many precious memories that are more than powerful enough to bring my heart joy and peace. You always brought a smile to my face, and to all others who were graced by your presence. My heart will always long for you because you will be forever missed, and forever loved. I know that you are safely wrapped in The Father's Everlasting Arms. My heart can only rejoice just knowing how privileged I was to be your mom! Until we meet again My Dearly Beloved Son...Love Momma.
