  Kristopher was a good man. He was the best son anyone could ever ask for. He was a great fiancée and an amazing father. If you were sad, he would try to make you laugh no matter what. Kristopher was a hard worker and a family man. He got up every day and put on his work boots straight out of high school. Any off day he had, he tried to spend it with family and friends. His favorite thing to do was spend time with Tailor and Tyler. Kristopher loved to play video games with his siblings or even by himself. When the sun would start to set, and it turned into a pretty view he would always get a picture and try to make everyone else look and appreciate the view. Kristopher was all about living in the moment. You just never really knew what you were going to be doing, just that it was going to be interesting.

  Kristopher was the biggest mama's boy. He loved listening to his music, and just being goofy. He had the biggest heart.  As a child he wanted to help every homeless person and listen to every veteran's story. He was a social butterfly. Everyone knew Kenney. He was loved by many. When he was young, he stayed busy playing with all his cousins, he loved riding bikes, and go carts. He always wanted to give you a ride on some adventure. He would stay up all night playing his games and then go to school. He graduated Highschool in 2022. He fell in love with Tailor in March of 2021.He became a father on October 2, 2022. He enjoyed being a father more than anything in the world. He didn't have enough time to enjoy life. He was a sandblaster at Melvin Pierce Painting, and he worked 7 days a week most of the time. He really took being a father serious, he provided for Tailor and Tyler every single day. He is deeply loved by so many. We have lost a beautiful soul.
