Christopher Walker, II was a most beautiful soul that called me Auntie!
It always grieves my heart in how some of us have such a low regard for LIFE that it truly sickens me.

To Natalie and Chris and the rest of the family I love y’all and I’m praying for your comfort mental health and strength to simply keep going even in the face of such adversity!
R.I.P. Christopher II
