I am truly sorry for your loss. I'm at a loss of words. Christopher and I were friends in middle school in Silver City at La Plata. He ALWAYS made us laugh. I'll always remember the fun, innocent times when we were children.

Our sincere condolences to Steve, Terry and family. Years ago on a camping trip with Steve and his two boys I conveyed to Steve how impressed I was of the behavior and mannerism to which Christopher and Steven Mark conducted themselves. As they grew into men my impression of them never wavered.
Our hope is that you find peace in knowing that Christopher is in the shelter of God's hands now.
