I dont even know you or your family, but whenever a young person passes, it deeply saddens me. Please just remember that he is still here and always will be, just not physically. Let his light shine for all of the lives Im sure he touched in the time that he was alive. I lost my best friend(28) and her two kids (2 and 6) in a fire in October, and I know how devestating it can be. God bless you, and Christopher, shine on :)

To Mark and Tammy, Although I haven't seen you for years, my heart breaks for your loss. I met Christopher when he was just 5 or 6, but I remember the joy that he brought to your family. I lost my mother just 3 years ago, and know how devestating losing a loved one. I wish there was something I could say to take away even just a fraction of the pain. He's in a better place now, with no worries and no pain. I'm so sorry for your loss. God Bless. Tara Whitney Lenger (Billings)

Mark, Tammy and family, How free he must be now, walking/running along your side. I can bet he'll be at every NASCAR race, I'll look for him in the crowds,in the clouds and in victory lane. Hugs to all of you for losing Chris. A new chapter of your lives has started, God Bless! Kim Kerr

To my Aunt Tammy and Mark I send my condolences on the death of my cousin Christopher. He was such a special man and a wonderful cousin. One memory I have of him is chasing my sister, Angela Maynard around our grandparents yard in Ottumwa after searching for Easter eggs. Also, I remember watching many videos with him when I lived with them in Graettinger. God Bless us all as we go through the loss of this incredible person.-Sicily Canny
