Christopher Michael Barrios Jr.

I know the friends and relatives of this precious little boy have no idea who I am, but I could not let the opportunity to express my sincere condolences pass.  I was reading about Christopher and my eyes filled with tears and my heart with sorrow.  I have a beautiful little boy too and I could not imagine what you as the family could possibly be feeling....  I'm trying not to cry too much as I type this message but it's very difficult.  Believe that God will deal with the monsters that took that beautiful, beautiful boy from this earth.  I feel so much anger inside towards those sick, sick, SICK individuals.  My prayers are and will continue to be with your family.  God will see you through.  Sincerely,  Sherry Briscoe

This is a case that will stay on my heart for the rest of my life.  I have embraced this child and his memory.   It was a horrible thing those monsters did to this precious child and they will pay.  My condolences to the family and friends and anyone who had the pleasure of knowing this child before he went home.  Im am proud to 'knolw' him now...

God Bless*

I am so very sorry to hear about the loss of your beautiful little boy, Christopher.  Unfortunately, I know too well the pain you are suffering.  Please hold each other close, communicate with each other because the feelings that all of you hold are very different from the next and never place blame on each other.  The reason I say this is because it is a parents job to watch over and protect their child anyway that they can and when a child dies, it is very easy to place blame on each other.  This was in no way anyone's fault but the people who committed this horrible crime against your family.  Please know that I have you in my heart and in my prayers and that my daughter, Bella, has welcomed Christopher with open arms!

When Days are Sad

All i can say is this is one of the saddest i have read. My goodness. I look at his picture and tears roll. He puts me in the mind of my son so much, My son is 7 but i look at him now with new eyes, after reading what happened to that handsome little man.I hold him more and i say i love him more. I pray for strength for the family. Just know he is now in peace and wont have to feel the pain from what those folk did to him anymore. You have my deepest sympathy. You all i cant stop crying. My God what is happening to this world. Be strong my friends from afar.May God be forever with you and your family.

 

R.I.P lil Chris  :(

I just want to say thank you Lord
for sending Christopher Barrios to this earth
even though his life was short
he is a shining light to all of us down here
It is unfair how you were taken from us
but because of you and your smile
and your laugh the word justice
has taken on another meaning
a million voices in unison all
are praying for your family
and for you and for justice

peace and love in heaven little brother

 

I pray for Peace and Healing for the entire family and everyone that loves Christopher.  He is such a Beautiful child.  His Beautiful spirit is so evident in his wonderful smile and bright eyes.  His story has touched me in ways that I cannot began to explain.  I weep for you and for the loss of such a joyful child.  The LORD is with him and he is never alone.  Hold on to that. I hugged my 6 year old son this morning a little tighter after reading your story.  I was praying for your family and wishing you were able to able to hold precious Christopher.   I also pray that the animals that took such Joy from you and the world are served swift justice.  Nothing can seperate your Christopher from the Love of GOD which is in Christ Jesus not even death. Romans 8:38-39

 

I will never forget Christopher and will continue to pray for you and your baby! Kaye

This is a very sad day for all of us today. It was six months ago that we lost you. As much as I love you and think of you everyday, how I wish I had never seen your name on the news that Sad March 8.

How I wish that you could still be feeding your adopted cat and playing with your friends in the school. Most of all, that you be with your family that misses you so Dearly.

We all know that you are with the Lord and no harm will ever come to you again. We all know that your move to heavens was without any pit stop in Purgatory. Your innocent soul went straight up to heaven. For that, we are all very happy.

You now have your grandpa with you and soon, before you know it, there will be many others. We will all eventually meet you in heaven, or reunite with you in the case of family and friends.

We all dearly miss you, little Angel. Rest in Peace till we all meet in heaven.

JUSTICE

Such a very special little man.  Christopher is such a beautiful boy and you can see he was an angel on earth before he even left this earth.  He's so very lucky to have such wonderful parents.  That can never be taken away like he was taken away from you all too soon.  He will be waiting for the day you join him and hold him in your arms forever.  So very sorry for your loss. Your tragedy touched my heart and I feel so much pain for you.  I know your little man will be playing with all his angel friends and looking after his family also.  My heart goes out to you and your family.  This is just so unfair and terribly wrong!!!
Lots of love to Christopher and to his wonderful family...

Lots of love from

Emma & Nevaeh xoxo

 

Nevaeh Angel Prince-Fraser (2006-2006)

I will reach my arms up high as I reach for a gift,

But your just to high up as I tippy toe and lift!

I can see you, but just can't seem to touch,

No matter how hard I try, it's just to tough!

Why is it we all want the gifts we cannot hold,

We can see it closely, it's big,bright and bold!

Trying to reach you is like looking for buried treasure,

I want it so bad, but i'll never get the pleasure!

I would trade everything without even thinking twice,

Just if God will give you back to daddy and Paula for one more breath of life!

But I understand, there's just no coming back again,

God won you over, your his very special friend!

He love's you more than anyone ever would,

Even though we love you deeply, we can't love you like he could!

And now there's really no need to cry, because your not alone,

Papa recently joined you, heaven is now his home!

I can rest now knowing you now have your pappy,

Even though you don't have all you want, you still really want your daddy!

But pappy's there and he will keep you oh so close,

Until you have your daddy, and then you'll be blessed with both!

I can't promise you that I still won't try to reach for a gift,

And I can't promise you that I still won't always hope and wish!

But what I can promise you Christopher, is when I find myself really sad,

I will think of how you now have Papa, and that will make me really glad!

So cheers to an angel who I just can't seem to touch,

He's a perfect gift who lives in heaven, and I love him so so much! 

RIP SWEET ANGEL, YOUR FACE I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE, TELL PAPA I SAID TO KEEP GIVING YOU PONY RIDES HIGH UP ON HIS KNEE!!! This is how much I love you~~~ I LOVE U a million times infinity!!!

 

To Christopher and his Family,

Christopher has touched so many in so many ways. From the moment he went missing I was attached.  I have never had a stranger impact me as much.  I know you miss him.  And we all know hes in a much better place and most of safe.  Its been months and still cant stop from tearing up.  I believe Christopher is proud of everyone and gives his daddy strength to enter that courtroom.  I find myself showing everyone his website.  I try to get as many petetions signed as I can.  There really is something truely special about Christopher, hes different and I know it.  I know youre so proud of youre baby boy.  Like I said before hes the real superhero. I know those animals will pay for eternity. And to Paula dont let others ignorant  petty comments about you being his paternal mother bother you, the important thing is that you love, care, and chersih him. And like Denise asked if at all possible if you could share any pictures of him as baby that would be great, sorry to hear that most them burned up. God Bless you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have visited this memorial site fequently. But I see Michelle and Julio due as well everyday. What wonderful people.  He has brought people together. 

May good keep him safe and at peace in his kingdom. Forever.

When I think of Christopher, I think of all of God's gorgeous creations,

Sunflower's, lilly's and even carnation's!

His nose is shaped like a pretty yellow rose,

His smile light's up like a lighting bug at night that glows!

His eye's are as green as freshly cut grass,

When you glance at your lawn, you will have a blast!

His skin is as silky as a MilkeyWay bar of candy,

As your starting to notice, all of God's creations can really come in handy!

All of God's gorgeous creations are beautiful to see, they can remind us

of how Christopher use to be!

Some of the very gorgeous things that we see everyday, will remind us of him,

You can find these gorgeous things growing in your garden on a stem!

Every now and then buy yourself a candy off the shelf, Milkeyway preferably

it can be good for your health:)

MilkeyWay candy is also a wonderful creation, God blessed man with the knowledge to make it, it can sometime's  make you thin,

And let's not forget, it's as silky as christopher's skin!

At night, try to catch a lighting bug, but dont keep em to long or even for a while,

Just long enough to see Christopher's gorgeous smile, then set it free so another

may see, what God's gorgeous creations, are really meant to be!

The next time you spend your saturday watering your grass because it is dry,

Stare at it for a moment, you'll be staring Christopher in the eye's!

As the sun rises each morning, go outside and enjoy the rays of shine,

It will be Christopher saying goodmorning, each and every time!

At night as the sun begins to set, it will be Christopher letting your children

know, that it's time to go get in their beds!

After the children are tucked in their beds and you, yourself find it hard to sleep

for thinking Christopher's just to far, go outside on your patio and watch the shining stars, he'll be one of the stars, im just not sure which one he'll be,

Im sure it will be the brightest one though, for everyone to see!

No matter what he'll let you know, that he'll never go away,

his body is gone forever, but his spirit is here to stay!

Just thank God that his gorgeous creations give us hope for tomorrow,

So we can move on, and remember our angel christopher,

Without living in so much sorrow!

 

                Made from the center of my heart

                To those who love and miss Christopher Barrios!

                RIP sweet angel, you will always be remembered

                Through God's gorgeous creations! Love always,

                                                                 Michelle Christian:)

Ive been following this story since it broke and i just want to tell the family that my thoughts and prayers are with them here in Illinois we consider christopher one of our family members and it has touched us deeply my daughters ages 15 and 16 have even spoken about him with there peers at school he is my screen saver on my pc so when we have guest they ask who he is and we proudly tell about this angel that God sent here to bring this world peace my faith in God has been even moore stronger beacuse it shows me that he has a plan and he is n control the family have been blessed to even know this angel from our Lord God bless you all and may Peace be with you        Tracy Wright Jessica Wright & Erika wright champaign illinois

To Mike, Paula, and all of Christophers Family, I dont know where to start, my prayers and thoughts are with all of you , as a mother of three my only son who is only a month older than Christopher was shocked and scared during this whole ordeal! I can say that I am much more protective over my children now more that ever, when Christopher went missing it was my son who let me know, even thought I had to work i still found time to come help search for him, i can say it was time NOT wasted i would have given anything to have been able to find him alive and save, I can assure you he is not sad, for he God had a better place and plan for this angel, just look how he has brought together complete strangers,  I am also the sister of the United Stated Marine Corps Cpl. Catherine Light who is stationed in Okinawai Japan,  when she heard of this angel and this things that happed she gathered her troops and made it known, so he is not just Brunswick's Child, he is known every where in the world, when she was home on leave she brought the package of cards from her troops, she has since returned to japan and hopes that they might have helped! Christophers death has not been in vain, even though hurtful. I hug my children a little tighter now, for I can not imagine your loss, with that said, Christopher  may you soar high angel, for you are truley blessed!

Love

The Jones Family,

Paula,

      No matter what anyone says you were Christopher's mother.

You fed him, bathed him, played with him, tucked him in bed at

night, and most of all you loved him. You did all the same things

that I do for my 5 year old son. This case has stayed in my heart

since I first heard of your little boy missing. He was so beautiful

with his bright eyes and huge smile. The people that ended his life

will pay the price for eternity. From one mother to another, always

remember that he had you.

                                        Sincerely,

                                                  Ashley Smith
