Your time on this earth was so precious from the moment you came into the family. I remember your grandma & pappa Finton carried you inside my house. ( A little bundle of Joy) It was a delight to watch you as we all tried to make you smile.
Watching you grow, your fascination of balls was exciting to watch as your eyes lit up with each bounce. You would toss it up the stairs and giggle. So, it’s no wonder why you enjoyed riding your bike.
I will continue to cherish all those wonderful memories, and share stories with others that have loved you dearly.
Rest in Peace

You came into my life when I needed it the most. You showed up for me day after day. You always put your own feelings aside to make everyone happy no matter how much you were struggling, you never let anyone see it behind your big smile. I remember Halloween when I begged you to be Jake sully because I really wanted to be an avatar lol. You were so frustrated at all the options I could have picked from but of course you ended up being my Jake sully in a blue crop top because I couldn’t find a men’s blue shirt. I’m so mad at the world for taking you away. I am forever grateful for the memories we made together and I’ll hold onto them forever.

Stealing Hearts
Christian, I will remember you as a loving father, brother, son, grandson, friend and so much more. A very sociable young man that never failed to make friends along his journey in life. Its natural for people to gravitate to your free spirit and kind , caring nature.
On May 2, 2025 this day is etched within my very existence. The horrendous tragedy that has befallen us in disbelief. Its left heart wrenching feelings within. This unexpected loss will be painful in nature for years to come.
My loveable and thoughtful nephew how you effected my life til eternity. My soft spot within my heart is yours and yours alone forever.
22 years is way too young for you to say goodbye and for alot of things you haven't done yet. Life was just beginning for you. Now the plans have changed, God was calling you home. You touched all the lives you encountered on a daily basics. Many has experienced your free spirit and gravitated to it. You were resilient to the challenges that life has put forth, you will endure. You did with precision jump every hurdle that was in your life's path. As a young man you adapted to being an adult.
Christian you were kind, caring and sympathic that makes you all the more enjoyable to be around.
I will miss all our texts, " I miss you auntie" love you auntie and "I rather be there cuddling you auntie. This was Christian cute way of saying "hugs".
Death definitely leaves an emptiness that lingers within and nothing can heal the painful heartache. Only love leaves a memory that can not be erased by time alone. Your love that you had for your family will never die, it will be an eternity forever a day.
I would like to believe with all my heart that all your sorrows has disappeared. You are now resting with great uncle John and many more family members that has everlasting love for you.
A million times we will miss you
A million times we will cry over you
A million times we will remember you and your smile
In our hearts, you hold a special place, that no one could ever fill. Our hearts are broken and scarred. Our hearts allow us to know that you did not go alone. You are finally home. Grieving process has begun. We will meet again my special nephew., you were loved more than you will ever know.
I love you and miss you more
Auntie Vilda

Whatever way the wind blew that blew you to me, I’m thankful everyday for it. When I met you 8 years ago, we were instantly best friends. When you moved away to Alberta, you were still my bestfriend. We kept in touch all those years, updating one another about what was going on in our lives, and planning countless trips to one another. The day finally came when you hopped on the plane and flew here to Newfoundland. We had such a great time. Me, you, Taylor and Tanner made our way into the city and had the time of our lives. So many laughs, smiles, and memories were shared. When you flew back home, and you asked me to come with you, I booked that one way flight so fast. The time we spent together was filled with so much love and happiness. I still remember our last conversation, you were planning another trip here. Sadly, that trip will have to wait. I’ll love you forever and a day, Christian. I hope heaven has a finely tuned guitar for you❤️

Q: How did you meet Christian?
A: Christain and I grew up together, he was my cousin. He played a huge part in my childhood and we were always hanging out with each other. We kept in touch and I was counting down the days where we could see each other again. Christain was such a kind spirit, his smile could always light up a room and he was the type of guy that would always be there for you if you needed him. I love you Christain and you will be missed very dearly. I hope heaven is treating you well my cousin. I will never forget you.
