Hello my name is Chris, I'm a mother, a daughter, an aunt to some amazing children, and a partner to John ...I'm also a business owner and friend (family to most) to all of my employees/team members. I could never do what I do without my people. They are the backbone to us being successful.

On Thanksgiving Day, Alisha called to tell me that her and her son would not be spending the day with us because she just got a call that Pete passed away... Pete, her boyfriend. Pete was her person. Pete was her peace. Pete was her future. You may or may not know, Alisha also lost her mother on Thanksgiving Day 17 years prior.

Sometimes life gives us the rarest gift—a second chance at love. After years apart, Alisha and Pete reconnected, rediscovering the bond that had never truly faded. In those precious months, they built a lifetime of memories, cherishing every moment as though they knew how fleeting it might be.

Tragically, their time was cut short when Pete passed away unexpectedly. Though their reunion was brief, it was filled with more love, laughter, and meaning than they ever thought possible. Losing him so soon after finding him again has been devastating for her.

As she navigates this overwhelming loss, I’m reaching out for support as she works through the unexpected expenses of saying goodbye. If you’re able to help, please visit the gofundme, or share this message with others who might want to contribute.

Thank you for being supportive of our person: Alisha, as she navigates through this difficult time.

With love and gratitude,

Chris and the Knock Out Team
