Dear Keil Family,

Chris is an amazing person and I just wanted you to know my thoughts and prayers are with your entire family.

*Greif is a tidal wave that over takes you, smashes down upon you with unimaginable force, sweeps you up into its darkness, where you tumble and crash against unidentifiable surfaces, only to be thrown out on an unknown beach, bruised, reshaped....

It is the ashes from which the phoenix rises, and the mettle of rebirth. It returns life to the living dead. It teaches that there is nothing absolutely true

or untrue...Grief will make a new person out of you.

I went to High School with Chris. I was immediantly taken with his personality. I could joke around with Chris and he would smile no matter what I said. He came to see me in College along with some other Trident Academy friends. I answered the phone and it was Chris he said he'd see me in 5 hours and suddenly there was a knock upon the door it was chris with a huge smile. It was beautiful. I could write forever about Chris, each memory I have of him is great. I'll never forget him. my prayers are with the Keil family. All weekend I was hurt by this news.

Please don't take friends for granted it hurts when you do. Chris will always here in our hearts and minds.
