Our beloved Christopher

During this devastating time and with a heavy heart I am announcing the death of my brother Chris as he passed away 08/31/2022. For those of you that knew him, you knew that he was a kind soul. He brightened the lives of so many with his goofy laugh, cheesy smile, and selfless means of carrying himself. He was so rare. I apologize that I cannot speak more directly on his behalf on the nature of your relationship with him, but I pray that you will remember him as fondly as he likely remembered you. Heaven truly gained an angel to be reckoned with — in the best way. 

 As you can imagine, my family was not at all prepared for the financial burden that comes along with a proper funeral service and burial. That is why I am reaching out to you all in hopes that you’ll show your support. Not for me, not even for my family, but for Chris. Every little bit helps. Thank you so much for even considering to donate and for taking the time to read about my brother. He loves you. I mean it. Even if he didn’t know you directly. Again, thank you for your consideration. And, on behalf of Chris, we wish you peace, blessings, prosperity, and all the love in the world!

— The Patten family 

 ***Funeral services we are aiming for Saturday October 1st. We have multiple birthdays and my parents 34th wedding anniversary also falls in September. This will give Chris his special time and day, but also gives family and friends time to make arrangements.
