As I have been thinking about Chris over the past couple of days my mind has "classified" him as Mike's friend. On the way home from Mt Pleasant it dawned on me that Chris was my friend as well. I have known him since my high school years. He was one of those guys that was always there. When we would go back to east Texas we would always see him.

The best summer of my life was right after my friend Denise and I graduated from high school. Mike and Chris were always together and Denise and I were inseparable. It was only fitting that when I started dating Mike that Denise would date Chris. Not hard to do because he was such a cutie and his attitude and arrogance were so entertaining. We were devoted friends and where one or two were on the weekend, there you would find all four of us.

My first job was at Pizza Inn in Kilgore and they would come eat almost every Friday night. Then they would go across the street to Sonic, where Denise worked and get something there. When the two of us got off of work, we would meet up with them. The majority of the time we would find them at Mike's house "jamming".

The last time I seen him, he came to Waco to stay with us for a week. It was so nice to have him here making me laugh. He was in several accidents the previous year and having some ongoing issues with that. Just letting him hang out while we were working did good things for him. During that week he went and bought a Bible and some Christian Music. When he got back home, he continued to study and started going to church on a regular basis.

I'll see you in Heaven Chris.
Love Ya!!
