With heartfelt sorrow, we announce the passing of Mr. Kris Hairston, who departed this life on July 8, 2025. Born in the year of 1976, Kris was a man of remarkable character, remembered for his affable personality, caring nature, and the love he exhibited in all his relationships. Kris was ever-mindful of others' feelings and needs, a virtue that made him a much-loved figure in his community and family.

A man of many passions, Kris's soul danced to the rhythm of Jay Z's music. An avid supporter of the New York Giants, he found joy in cheering for his team from the edges of his seat. Equally, he cherished the thrill of playing golf and tennis, and savored the laughter and critiques of fine wit that came with watching stand-up comedy.

Perhaps the most fulfilling of all his interests were the outside activities he enjoyed with his beloved wife and youngest son. The outdoors was their canvas, full of opportunities for exploration, bonding, and making memories to last a lifetime. Kris's favorite color, blue, often mirrored the sky above during these cherished moments.

Among Kris's deepest concerns was the welfare of young, troubled youth. He firmly believed in the potential of every child and devoted significant efforts to support causes that shared this conviction. His life philosophy was encapsulated in his advice to always be nice to others, as we can never fully comprehend the battles they might be fighting. This lesson, among others, he passed on eagerly to his loved ones and acquaintances alike.

Kris leaves behind his loving wife and three kids, who will miss him dearly. His infectious smile, loving demeanor, and the warmth of his friendship will also be deeply missed by all who knew him. His legacy will live on in the principles he championed, the lives he touched, and the love he shared.
