Kristopher's obituary

Kristopher-Allen Sequoia Lunsford-Barrett was born May 17, 1997 in San Diego, California to Kristy Lunsford and Aaron Barrett and passed away March 1, 2021 in Kansas City, MO. He was the victim of a violent crime that left his family with unimaginable pain. https://youtu.be/D8F35boqT_4

Kristopher was a talented musician and had an unequivocal gift for writing. Kristopher was a loving, affectionate, protector of his siblings, Jack Barrett, 10, Mila Barrett, 9, and Reginald Phoenix, 5. He had a sweet, mellow disposition and could talk for hours with anyone. Kristopher had the unique ability of making those around him feel special and loved.

He moved from San Diego, CA to Palm Springs, CA in 2004, where he began elementary school at Desert Chapel Christian School. He spent his early teen years in San Diego, where he attended Grossmont High School, around which time he began writing lyrics. His talent as a musician, particularly in the rap genre, was recognized in Kansas City, MO in 2019 when he was offered a record deal from Universal Music Group and Bungalow Records. He and his music partner and best friend, Eric Dufao, first performed live in Downtown San Diego and began gaining clout in the Los Angeles music scene in 2019. Kristopher was deeply passionate, showing devotion to all that he loved; his music, his friends, and his family.

Kristopher passed away tragically at age 23. He is survived by both his loving parents and grandparents, Nadia and Reginald Woolridge, who were very influential in his life. The graveside memorial will be held on March 22, 2021 at 11 a.m. PST at the Singing Hills Memorial Park in El Cajon, CA. On March 10th, Kristopher's body was transported to the city of San Diego, because it was important to his family that he comes home to his final resting place.

Memorial service Monday March 22, 2021 at Singing Hills Memorial Park in El Cajon, CA 2800 Dehesa Rd El Cajon, CA 92019 and Celebration of Life at NTC Park Liberty Station 2455 Cushing Road, San Diego , CA 92106
