Christian was a gift from the Lord during his time with us and was a blessing and inspiration to many with his heart of compassion, generosity, and love. Christian was a joyful presence whose laughter and love for life was infectious, bringing his joyful spirit and wide smile to all.
He loved to dance, sing, and make music on the piano and guitar, making others laugh and feel included. Christian had a passion for football and an even deeper love for his cherished teammates and friends. Christian recently graduated from Kildonan East Collegiate and was excited to start at the University of Manitoba this fall, taking classes in Kinesiology and Psychology. He also worked very hard this summer and was saving his money for his first set of wheels.
Christian knew Jesus as his Saviour and touched many lives, knowing that he was called to act as the hands and feet of his precious Lord.
Cremation has taken place and a memorial service to celebrate the glory of God in his life was held on Saturday, September 7, 2013 at Gateway Community Church, 851 Panet Road at 3:00 p.m.
