Dear Zangarine Family

My sincerest condolences. The pain that death brings can be extremely difficult, but please know you are not alone. Jehovah our God is with us. He will rid us of death. (Revelation 21:4) He will also reverse the effects of death by bringing our loved ones back to life. John 5:28,29 says to “not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out.” May this promise give you the strength to endure till you see Christopher again.

Chris meant everything to Heather. The way they met is a remarkable story.
He changed her life. He always took wonderful care of her. As her Mom I will always be grateful for that.
We are happy we were able to spend time with him on their trips to Florida.
He will be missed by all.
With love,
Mom and Renée.

Z and I were hired by Bass-Trigon and began working there in the same week in July, 1999. He was a kid, I was over 50, but as we worked together over the months and years, we became good friends. We had many differences of opinion on things - especially politics - but that never came between us personally. We respected one another's right to their own opinions and each of us listened respectfully to the other. We disagreed without being disagreeable - a very rare thing these days, and one of the reasons that I loved the guy. He had a one-of-a-kind sense of humor which I really appreciated, as I think he appreciated mine. We laughed a lot together. When I learned he was ill, I kept him in my prayers, and I am very saddened that he lost his courageous battle. My condolences to everyone who loved him, who worked beside him, or who knew him in other ways. He was a great guy and will be missed.
HE WAS MY SON

He was the pride and joy of his grandparents, being their first grandchild, but he was more than that to me—He was my son.

As a little boy he wore a breastplate, brandished a sword and a shield, and ran through the house yelling “He Man,” but he was more than a conqueror to me—He was my son.

He received many accolades for his ability to play the trumpet, impressing many, but he was more than a musician to me—He was my son.

He became Microsoft certified while still in Highschool, and landed a job with a computer company before finishing his first semester of college, but he was more than a brilliant mind to me—He was my son.

We had some difficult times between us as he grew from a boy to a man, but he was greater than any problem could ever be—He was my son

He became a husband and father, taking on the responsibility of an instant family, but he was more than a loving family man to me—He was my son.

Together we shared a conservative view, quick witted humor, shooting weapons, and the enjoyment of fishing, but he was more than a buddy to me—He was my son.

As his days drew closer to an end, we discussed life, death, fear, and peace in search for some kind of meaning, but he was more than a philosopher to me—He was my son.

He sought to do right, teach others, be truthful and honest, provide for his family, be compassionate, and seek God, but he was more than a good man to me—He was my son.

I could sit here and contemplate the days that are past: his life, his accomplishments, his likes and dislikes, his harshness or humbleness, his desire for Fruity Pebbles or Taco Bell, or who he was as a man and what he represented, but he will always be more to me than a thought could convey—HE WAS MY SON—AND I WILL MISS HIM DEARLY…
I am so sorry to hear about Chris. I worked with Z at American Innovations for many years. At first, we argued about politics fiercely - we had very different strong opinions. But over the years, after we go to know one another, we had some great (non-political) conversations. He was an extremeley smart guy. I know he leaves behind many family and friends that will miss him terribly. My thoughts are with you.
I want to give my deepest condolences to the family as I was sad to hear the news about Z. He was one of the brightest software engineers I ever worked along side with. I remember him being in my interview at ESC and as we had technical discussions I knew if I was offered the position I had a very unique opportunity to learn so much from him. Once hired on he was a great mentor and always made time to discuss and walk through code. He was always willing to explain and teach what he knew and I was always eager to learn from him. He was a great person who always joked and you could have office banter with. Z will be deeply missed but I’m grateful for the opportunity I had with him during my time at ESC.
My deepest condolences for the family. Chris and I were co-workers at ESC (Environmental Systems Corp.) in different departments but he always made an effort to come and joke around with us. He was a brilliant programmer and very intelligent. I am very blessed to have met him.

I am shocked and heartbroken to hear that Chris is no longer with us. My heart and prayers goes out to the family during this time of grief.

I worked with Chris during our time at ESC ( Environmental Systems Corporation). I loved his go-getter I can accomplish anything attitude. When he was tasked to get things done, he got it done even when under pressure. He was always willing to share is knowledge and help me out whenever I needed it. He was so much more than a coworker, but a friend and confidante.
