Christopher Michael Barrios Jr.

i have experinced a death before and iknow how it feel, i feel so so bad that i cried many time when i saw this on the news

                     R.I.P. little christopher  

This angel will always be remembered.  Though I never knew him i feel love for him.  I have heard about kids being killed before.  I have never been touched by a childs' death like this before which makes me know he truly was an angel.  It has been years and my heart is still full with sadness, regret that this happened, and anger towards those responsible.   This website is a beautiful tribute to one of God's great gifts which is what Christopher was and still is.  I pray the family is healing quickly in knowing that Christopher is at peace with God our Father.  May we all have a speedy healing process in this.  You are missed angel but never forgotten.  Your smile lives on.  God Bless.

to the family of christopher,

                                       this is so sad ,what happened to this handsome little munchkin,

i do hope that the people who did this go to prison for the rest of their lives,blessings to his family

and remember your beautiful child will always be with you

I never met you, but I feel that you were mine. You belonged to so many people even though they did not birth you or was blood related. You effected me in ways that a child who was killed never has. That is why I strived so hard to give you a small peace of what you deserved. I was so happy to give you and your family that headstone even though it's something I wish I never had to do. May God comfort Mike, Paula, brothers, sisters, grandma and uncles. You know that for some reason your presence was felt on that day at the car wash for you, the stories I heard that day and the blessings my family received was no one but God it made all of us filled with so much joy and enthusiasm. I felt that you gave each and every one of us a kiss on the cheek, I felt that you held the had of someone and walked all around us. I wish that I could have met you, well someday I will. God Keep and Comfort through this 1 year anniversary, an anniversary that should have never ever happened. Keep shining your light upon your Dad. Give him a hug he needs it very much let him feel your touch today. I know that you are much too busy playing and rejoicing, just give eveyone a kiss from heaven.

Dear Family of Christopher, I happened to come across this and my heart sunk. I read and read til I couldn't read anymore. Your beautiful son is waiting for you. You will see him when its your time. Not knowing all the details he endured I have to tell you he is happy. I experienced death myself 3 yrs ago and can never explain what it was like. I try my best. It's beautiful, peaceful, a place you will never see here. You do see family waiting as you make the transition. I happened to see and hear my dad. He said " honey its not your time so turn back" I put up a fight , for the feeling I was feeling I had never felt so peaceful in this life. I lost my Dad at the age of 14 and I am 53 now and not One day goes by that I  don't feel him here, something I didn't feel before I almost crossed over. Christopher is near you. He is watching over you and his baby brother. With everyday you miss him, you may cry, feel like he is away and will be home any second. Those are times he is there. Feel a breeze  on your arm then its suddenly gone? Wings fluttering by. I feel my Dad more and more and somday I am going to testify my experience. We do pass on but we still see our loved ones crying and going through a experience. He will always be with you. If you feel funny want to laugh  go ahead for Christopher is trying to get you to know he is with you. He ejoys your poems, your visit the fact you sit with him. Guide your mom and dad Chris and maybe one daythey will see you reading a book and smiling. Help themto remember thr good times you were all together.    I hope to see you  whenI pass on.Sounds like you were a anazing child. God Bless

  

Gosh.. I linked here from the memory of website and this site is just absolutely beautiful!!!! Christopher was such a gorgeous child!! This brought me into a fit of tears. My son is 8 years old and I CANNOT EVEN IMAGINE how you must feel! May the people who did this burn in hell for eternity!! You and Christopher have touched me. Thank you for sharing.

Mike, Paula and Family:

 

I live in Chicago and have followed this story from the beginning.  First, I want to say that I pray for your strength and peace.  I have thought about your child since the day I heard this story.  I cannot begin to imagine what you are feeling.  However, our God is a knowing and healing God and will heal you in time.  Stay together and keep your baby's memory and story going!  I know I am a complete stranger--like many who have written on this site.  However, that gives me hope for humanity that so many strangers are compassionate enough to reach out and say we are praying and we care.  He was so beautiful and the pictures clearly show that he was LOVED and STILL IS.  Pray. Live. Remember.

 

Yours in struggle,

Ronda in Chicago

" The One Who Hides"

How unselfish you are
yet dont even know,

For your love of others
will carry you far,

You worry for them
pushing your own grief away,

You met all the people
never shying away,

How lucky for them all
to have one such as you,

Yet no one really knows
your hearts torn into,

You hide your tears
letting know one see,

You dont want to burden them
or add to there grief,

So you face them all
with a superficial face,

Pushing on through
sorrow filled days,

Always the strong one
everythings O.K.,

Your courage and sacrifice
I admire everyday.

God's Gift

 

God did not grant me your birht to bare

I never carried you in my womb, no blood did we share

But still my child you will always be

 

I wiped your tears, bandaged your skinned knees

Argued over school work and

showed you right from wrong

 

Helped you face your fears, when the shadows came alive

tucked you into bed and kissed you goodnight

 

You earned a place in heaven as I earned mine in your life

And even if another was there in your first days

It matters not to me

 

For I carry you in my heart

And your "mommy"

I'll always be

                      * A Jeanie in a bottle *

 

If a jeanie in a bottle appeared before my eyes,

Id only ask for one special prize!

Even though he might tell me, that I can make 3 wishes,

Id ask for the same one over and over, id even give that ole jeanie all kinds of kisses!

If he could grant me the wish, to have Christopher back with us on earth,

Id sure make that ole jeanie see, just how much he's worth!LOL

I wouldn't even ask that ole jeanie for the wish to meet precious Christopher face to face,

As long as his daddy and Paula, get their baby back, there's nothin else to say!

But of course id love to meet that sweetheart, for im in love with that little stranger,

But the main point of my one wish, was to have never had him in any danger!

So I will settle for the chance to have never met him in this lifetime,

If he could just have one more chance here, just a longer lifeline!

But as I snap back into reality and realize that jeanies are just something we wish for,

The truth is, onece we are taken away, there's just no getting back in that door!

God is really the true jeanie, for he can do more for us than anyone else can,

Paula and Mike I promise you, that he will never put more on you, than you can stand!!!

And that's the story of a jeanie in a bottle, but the jeanie doesn't live in a bottle,

He live's in heaven, with your beautiful angel baby boy, Christopher Barrios Jr:)

May that sweet precious thing RIP for he is loved and always will be forever and ever and ever!! I still wish God would come and grant me just one wish, I would ask for Christopher back with you and to have never ever been harmed!!! I LOVE YOU guys, stay strong, your my hero's, I couldn't be as strong as you are now, I would be in a mental place, or worse!! God Bless you both, Love, Michelle
