• Christopher taught all of us lessons in perseverance, laughter and love. He was the finest young man we have ever known. - Posted by: Murray & Joann Bartley (Uncle and Aunt of Christopher) on: Nov 23, 2013

• I have very fond memories of Chris as a part of our Creative Expressions art group at Tache. He was a warm and sensitive human being. And his poetic words were an inspiration. I am so thankful he was able to be a part of the Art Show of 2DE at the Osborne Library. Folks really enjoyed his art and his poems. Peace to Chris and all the family.

• Chris was never in want of a kind, thoughtful word or deed; was invariably positive and loving and; never wasted a moment of his life. We loved Chris deeply. As much as we yearn for his companionship, we cherish the sure and certain knowledge that he is in tender care of the Lord, dancing with his loving Mom, chatting with his grandpa, golfing with his Uncle Larry and walking in the woods with his Uncle Keith. - Posted by: Roy A.

• From the time I held Chris in my arms as an infant, I was totally in love with our little redhead. To know Chris was to love him. He was devoted to his family and so grateful for anything you did for him. I will miss our talks, our poems, and mostly our hugs. We will have a lot to catch up on -- until we meet again. I love you, Chris. - Posted by: Sharlene Bartley (Aunt) on: Nov 14, 2013

• Chris was the best, truest friend I ever had. We shared so much laughter. His bright smile could brighten even my worst days. I will always be grateful for his friendship. I am so blessed for having known you. Thank you for your friendship, I hope you know how much you mean to me. Rest in peace my friend till we meet again you will always fill a special place in my heat no one else ever will. Love Always I Live On - Unknown Don't cry for me in sadness; don't weep for me in sorrow, For I will be beside you, as sure as comes tomorrow. My body has gone but my spirit lives on, as does my love for you. Just as in life. I'll watch over you, I always will be true. I will always by your side. I know my jokes weren't always funny and jobs weren't always done. Just try and always remember the good times, the days when we had fun. Reach out if you need me, for I will always be near. Just talk to me, as if I am there, I promise I will hear. For I'll live on, within your mind, we'll never be apart, As long as you keep my memory, deep within your heart. So lift up your hearts, don't be sad, my spirit hasn't gone. While you're still there, so am I, I really will live on - Posted by: Susan Pinnington (Friend) on: Nov 14, 2013

• My Chris was my heart and my soul. He accepted his deteriorating health with unbelievable courage . I will miss his smile and his laugh but know that he is with his mom now and free of pain and suffering. God bless you Chris see you in awhile - Posted by: Dan Bartley (Father) on: Nov 14, 2013

• I first met Chris when he was around 7 or 8 months old visiting his mom and dad and introducing him to his second cousin Shannon our daughter who is 5 months younger. Even though I have known his mom since grade school we always lived miles apart but tried to keep in touch over the years. Will always remember his beautiful red hair and his beautiful smile and his quiet jokes that always made us laugh. I know his Mother was totally devoted to him as was his father but his Mother will be looking after him now. I truly believe this. Danny and Margie, our condolences are with you now and you are in our thoughts and prayers always. - Posted by: Debbie & Rick Morris (Friends) on: Nov 13, 2013

• Chris was an inspiration. We always heard from Shar his pearls of wisdom and stories that showed his heart. Chris looked like a handsome Norseman, courageous yet kind and every story bore that out for us, especially his fight to stay on this side with his Dad. We marvelled at his strength. God bless and take his soul close to Him. Prayers for the family, especially for to Dan. Chris is at peace now. - Posted by: Cliff and Rachele Yerex (Sharlene Barley's brother in law and sister in law) on: Nov 13, 2013
