for some reason I couldn't post in the original thread ^. I think the operation timed out since the thread is so long. Anyway I wanted to post some pictures of the monument we got for Christopher. And I wanted to say thanks again to everyone who offered us support.

Very beautiful monument for your son, the picture really is a nice touch. Like the other members it still really hurts to think what your family endured. I hope your family is finding ways to heal, God bless.

[Pappy]

I think of Chrissy often, the monument is a nice tribute Joe.

[4punksdad]

everyone has been very supportive. I wanted to pay a special thanks to everyone here and on other web sites who stepped up with words of encouragement, gifts, food and everything under the sun.

everyone who sent a cash donation for his memorial can rest assured it was spent on this monument. Everyone who sent cards and letters can be certain they meant alot. Everyone who sent food can be certain we ate it!

Thanks........from the bottom of our hearts.

[Donkey1]

Dirt That is a great head stone. It looks really nice.
