Longing For One More Day!!!
In Loving Memory of Chris Anthony Trahan

When we lose someone we love it seems that time stands still.  What moves through us is a silence...a quiet sadness...A longing for one more day...one more word...one more touch...We may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you LIVED!  And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget.  We will see you again some day, in a heavenly place where there is no parting. A place where there are no words that mean good-bye. 

We love you Chris, always!  You will be greatly missed.  Ernie and Toddie Garcia

I was so sadden by the news of Chris. My thoughts and prayers are with the family. Life is to short for misunderstandings. Through his death may there be life!

I will never forget some of the best times as a child we shared together love ya Sherri, Nan Dot & Robin and Abraham... Chris you will be greatly missed ... love of all of ya'll.. I know Taunt Gail & Nonc Allen got you !!!!!!

Sheri Lee, I was so sorry to hear what happened.  Ron and I are thinking of you and praying you will find the strength to cope.  Nothing can be said to lighten your pain, but know that there are so many people who love and care about you.  All our best, Ron and Linda Staley (Sandy's sister)

thought of you with love today, but that is nothing new, we thought
about you yesterday & days before that too. We think of you in
silence, we often speak your name; Your memory is our keepsake, with
which we will never part; God has you in his keep, we have you in our
...heart. It broke our heart to lose you, but you didn't go alone, for a part of us went with you..the day God took you home.

So much to say about Chris and not one thing wouldnt be something to cheer you up. he was always the life of the party and one that definitely stuck out in the crowd. I am so glad that i had the privledge to meet such an awesome guy that became a friend that was one of a kind and that will never be replaced. if ever there was a time that you were in need or needed a smile, then chris would drop what he was doin and do whatever it took to give you a hand or make you smile. Sheri, I can not imagine what it feels like to lose your best friend and soul mate, thought and prayers are goin out to you and your family as well as the friends who grieve from their loss. we definitely lost a great man. we shall rejoice that he is in a better place now. and if there is anything that you or your family may need, be it the littlest thing, please dont hesitate to call. i would gladly give my time to help as i know chris has helped me and would continue to do so if needed.     love you all.

I have so many childhood memories of Chris growing up on the Shrimp boats. I haven't seen him in a long time,but I know he was a great guy. will be sadly missed buy a lot of people. Thoughts and prayers are with his Family.

We will always have wonderful memories and cherish the good times in our hearts.

 I made my last tie-in weld  of my career with Chris in May 2008. Chris was a very good friend. He was very intelligent and knew which direction he was going, how he was going to do it, and when and why . I watched him build his truck bed in Willbros yard and was really impressed. Chris was a great welder and a good person, and will be missed. My heart goes out to Sheri and family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Your smile was the biggest and warmest I have known in quite sometime. Your zest for life and the enjoyment of it will be truly missed. Your generosity and kind spirit was a quality not often found in others. The love you and Sheri Lee shared was a rare one and evident to all who encountered it. What a joy it was to see how devoted to each other you were and how happy that made you both. 
Words are difficult to express exactly how much you will be missed, but your spirit will endure in our memories and in our hearts forever!
All Our Love,
Carlos and Karron Guerra and family

Our prayers are with the family. I remember Chris when we were young kids running around Chauvin and Cypremort Point on the shrimp boats and where ever we could follow the older folks to a good time. Although I haven't seen him in years he was always a joy to be around and I know he will be sadly missed. God bless you all. Kattina Trosclair Brittan and son, Jeremiah.

Chris you will never be forgotten. You were so young when you walked in me and Rowdy's wedding. We had so much fun for mardi gras and staying with yall. You will be sadly missed. Prayers going out to the family.

Please accept my heartfelt sympathies for your loss. My thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time.

Hold tight to memories for comfort,
Lean on your friends for strength,
And always remember how much you are cared about. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

well what can ya say about chris that you dont already know? ive known chris since the age of 11. even baby sat his children. he was always the fun guy to wanna be around in no matter what situation you were handed. the smile he had would light up a room or the comment that you know would come flying out of his mouth when you least expect it. in more ways than one, he has found a way into your heart. often i thought of him as an older brother. hehe i even remember the trip to new orleans for a kidd and play rap concert! riding bumping the tunes of too short in his green mitsubishi low rider truck with the saying...mushy bushy...because lacie could say the mitsubishi word. all cherished memories now. may your free spirit forever ride that harley my dear friend. you will always be loved and greatly missed. love ya...maylyn

My thoughts and prayers are with his entire family.  He was very well liked/loved by all who knew him.

I meet Chris through Sherrie Lee who was a co worker of mine at the time, I can say that my wife Carol and I would often run into them at the grocery store and Chris would always greet us with a warm smile. He always had something positve and uplifiting to say. My God keep you and comfort you during this difficult time.

Sheri Lee & Family,
We are so sorry for your loss. 
Chris will live forever in your hearts & memories.
You and your family are in our thoughts.
~Carl & Sandy ( Harkless ) Talley

We are very thankful for all of the good times we had with Chris at parties and on vacation trips.  He was always a true cajun gentleman.  We will miss him dearly.  Our deepest thoughts and prayers go out to Sheri, family and friends.

Broken Chain
We little knew that morning that God was going to call your name.
In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone;
for part of us went with you the day God called you home. 
You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide, 
and though we cannot see you, you are always by our side. 
Our family chain is broken and nothing seems the same, 
but as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.
______________________________________
Can you imagine what Heaven is like with Papa Allen and Chris.  Makes you want to be there and join the fun they are stirring up.  I guess that is why they were taken from us for God to enjoy the joy they bring to everyone they around.  
The Bible says "when the work is all completed he will gently call you home..."  Chris had done his work in being a wonderful son, brother, uncle, cousin, friend and most of all father and husband.  i just know the "work" we enjoyed him doing was not even close to being complete for us.

He is greatly missed!

Jonathon and I are so sorry for your loss!! Jonathon worked with Chris and he became such a good friend to him. I had the priviledge of meeting chris a couple of times and from the first time I met him I thought this is one cool dude. He seemed so full of life!! I told Jonathon immediately after meeting him and sherri that these were good people. I am soo sorry Sherri for you loss and I know Chris will forever remain in the hearts of those who loved him!! Rest in Peace Chris!!

"A face we love is missing, a voice we know is still, a place is vacant in all our hearts that only you could fill, tears in our eyes, they won't go away, we wish you were here with us today, we know you never meant to hurt us, or make us cry, Our love for you will never die, If only things didn't end this way, we will always remember you as our friend, We love you Chris, Rest in paradise till we meet again!"

Chris became part of our family when he and Sheri fell in love.You could see the love he had for Sheri. I will always cherish his memories and his cajun accent. He was a great crawfish cook and the life of the party. He will be missed by all who knew him. 
May God Bless him and his family.

Please God, let there always be eternal light on Chris and keep him in your safe keeping forever!!!!!

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief.  May your memories bring you comfort.

I had the pleasure of working with Tony on several projects in the past. He was a great man and will surely be missed by all who knew him! My heart and prayers go out to your family.
