Christopher was my only son. A young man with a bright future, who loved life. He was know for his
kindness and hillarious nature, he was always making people laugh, always entertaining. There was
never a dull moment with him around. I miss him so much he was my pride and joy. My prayer each
day is that this blatant killing of the next black generation will stop. We need to love one
another and work together to build better and brighter futures. Rest in Peace my son. I will
always love you. Mumz

Rest in peace Christopher

I was in Germany on work experience when you sadly passed so when I got back to hear the news it was such a shock I couldn't believe it. The last time I saw you we wasn't on good terms for 1 reason or another and up to this day I am so sad of that I wish things would have been different. You didn't deserve to die and you didn't deserve to be taken so young. We would talk about future plans and now you'll never be able to fulfill them.
I remember us going up west and you bought me Southpark socks and I've still got them now, they're abit holely but they're sentimental. I was just talking to my mum & she remembers when she came home 1 day to find both of us sitting on the sofa with our thumbs in our mouths & she said to you ( with a baffled look on her face) 'whats that I'm seeing, is that your thumb in your mouth' and you kinda half smiled half nodded, and you didn't take your thumb out your mouth ( good for you!).
Christopher you are dearly missed by your family & friends may you Rest In Peace God Bless
Lots of Love Dawnie B xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

P.s, To Christopher's mum I'm so happy to read that you have a little girl with such a beautiful name of Destiny she is truely a blessing. I don't know if you remember after Chris's funeral in the hall I came up to you and introduced myself and you said to me ' your the girl that Christopher has run up the phone bill talking to' That's me. God Bless you and your family and I wish you all the best for the future.xx

Sorry for your loss....

I am so sorry for your loss and hope you somehow find the strength to carry on. He was so young and it must be so hard to accept, but he is in a better place. It is just such a waste and I wish people would think before they act.
RIP Christopher xxx

THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR KIND WORDS AND PRAYERS

I would like to say a big thank you to everyone who has visited this site and left encouraging words and prayers this has really strenghthened me. I would like to say that there really is a God out there and as much as I miss my son, I know that he is in a great place.

I was told that I could not have anymore children, when Christopher was about 13 years old and exactly 5 weeks after his death, I found myself pregnant and I now have a beautiful little girl, called Destiny and my only regret sometimes is that he is not here to enjoy her. She is very much like him and she is beautiful and great fun.

I have shared this with you all, because although I know that no one could ever replace my boy, but I am assured that God loves and cares about me so much that He bought my daughter to bring a degree of comfort into my life.

So hold on to the Lord in your time of challenges.

God bless you all.

Much love.

am sorry

TO CHRISTOPHER'S MUM& FAMILY:
My brother was murdered senselessly just on 18th nov2006 so i can understand what you went and still going through, you are right, it needs to stop how many more have to die?. i hope in time it has got easier for you as everyone keeps telling us espceially our mum that it will, though right now it doesn't feel like it. These evil's just don't know the damage they cause. I know it will never bring him back but i trully hope that justice was done for Chris as i hope for my brother-currently they have 2 evil's charged for his murder.. i try to take comfort that Arian is in a wonderful place at peace as he came to mum and told her and i am sure that Chris will be right there with him. No harm can come to them again..Chris iam sorry you had to lose your life this way RIP x

From one mother to another

I came across your beautiful son whilst leaving a message. I'm so very sorry for your loss. My son is 16 and I worry for him & all of our sons. I pray for the killings to end. I don't overstand totally why our children are killing eachother. My heart goes out to you Sis. I just don't know how I would cope if my son or daughter were taken away from me.

May The Almighty continue to give you strength & much love.

In my thoughts & prayers.
