PRAYERS FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY  / Edy Daniels (NONE)
I am at a lost of words. I do not want to dwell on the fact of how you were taken away from those who love you. Those creatures will be dealt with when the time comes. I don't live far from where you did. I live in Albany Ga and every day for the last 2.5 years I have thought of you and cried for you. I know my tears cannot bring you back nor can the tears of the ones who love you. I have come to understand that no matter who you are WE love you as you are innocent sweet beautiful loving child. I myself have a little boy and everytime I look at him I think of you. As I look thru your pictures you I see my son. To me and his sisters you and him resemble each other. I wish I could have met you and showed you the love I have for you. I have talked about you to everyone that will listen and even those who seem to not care or listen. I hold a special place in my heart for you and your family. I would love to meet them as well as meet you when I come to those Gates. You are my superhero and will always be. I know I don't know you nor have ever meet you but I LOVE YOU and you are in my heart forever. To your Grandma I know its hard knowing that a piece of you has been taken from you. But knowing that Christopher is happy and pain free is always the best thing for him. Even tho he thought he was alone GOD was with him and did not allow him to suffer anymore. Yes it was a horrible crime they did but remember GOD will take care of them. Christopher suffered little and is now at the GREATEST playground he could ever be. Safe from harm and filled with love. I love you as well even thou I do not know you. To your father I can not describe what you are feeling let alone say I know how you feel. 2.5 years has been a long time without that love that is now filled with a void. It is not your fault remember that. You knew as much as anyone in the neighbor hood did. I know if you were there you would have protected him with all of your heart and soul as for he and his sibling are your heart and soul. As I have said to little Christopher and his Grandmother I love you and you and your family are in my prayers. To the rest of the family. I do not know you but I am here for you. I know I am a stranger off the street but sometimes that is what is needed for someone to show their love and caring for a family in their time of need. Every year is suppose to get easier but lets rejoice in his name and not cry in vein. CHRISTOPHER M. BARRIOS JR. I praise you and love you. With you and your family every step of the way. I LOVE YOU!!!!!! Close

joy comes in the morning  / Carrie Christian (just someone who cares )
i just want to say that i have never had the pleasure of meeting  sweet christopher but i have heard so much about him it feel like i know him and i want to say to the family that you all are in my prayers and one thing i do believe to be true is that you reap what you sow and thoses evil demons will reap what they sow and for them this will not come to pass but to hunt them until they to are put to sleep Close

God keeps those littlest angels at his side.  / Christine Galvan (No relation )
I would like to begin by saying that my heart broke in a million pieces for you little Christopher.  I myself have 3 boys one of which is 6 years old  which is why I was so moved by this story.  I came across a small article in the back of the newspaper that spoke of your son and this tragedy.  It was his beautiful little smile that truly jumped out from the page at me.  I hope that your family has found peace after such a tragedy.  Know this he was too precious and too good for this world.  I wish you the best.

Poem by Sandra Cooper, for Ms Sue Rodriguez.  / Julio Cuesta (Adopted Grandfather )
Grandma don't cry
I'm not far away
I live in you heart
Forever to stay
I know that you love me
And miss me so
But God had a plan
And I had to go
So Grandma please
Try not to be sad
Take care of my brothers
Watch after my Dad
I'm happy here
In Heaven above
With my Papa Louis
He sends you his love
It beautiful Grandma
I wish you could see
All of the love
That's given to me
All of the hugs
And kisses I get
But Grandma your kisses
I will never forget
Tell Jessie I love her
And I miss her to
To try to be happy
And to watch over you
Trust In the Lord
He will stay by your side
Grandma I love you
Grandma don't cry.

2nd poem written by Sandra Cooper for Christopher  / Julio Cuesta (Adopted Grandfather )
I Cry
I cry for a little boy
That I never knew
I cry for a family
Broken in two
I cry for a Daddy
Who lost his dear Son
And must carry this burden
Till his life is done
I cry for a Grandma
Who will never again know
What it feels like to hold her little boy close
But I know in my heart
That Christopher's near
That he see his Daddy's
And his Grandma's tears
That he holds them close
When they sleep at night
And tells them he loves
And all is alright
That he's happy now
In Gods loving light
And his Grandpa Luis
Is always in sight
That he plays with the Angels
In the clouds up above
There's no sadness or pain
Only pure love
So when you feel the sorrow
In life is to much
Look up at the sky
And you'll feel his touch
That beautiful smile
You will see once more
When Christopher's waiting
At Heaven's door.

Precious angel  / TIna Bailey (My heart belongs to you )
Ever since you left this world Christopher you have captivated my heart. I think of you daily. Sometimes smiling when I look at your sweet face and sometimes fighting back the tears when I think of how you left. Praying and thinking of your family is something that I do also. Sometimes just wishing I could hug them and tell them how sorry I am for there loss. My mind just cannot comprehend how you woke up one day a innocent child going to school playing and all the things little boys do and in the blink of an eye gone leaving the world changed forever. Justice is going to be served out for you on this earth and then when those monsters take there final breath true justice will begin.  The master will not let them get away with what they did and causing your family and so many other people to be destroyed by losing there precious baby. Until the day we meet I just wanted you to know that I love you Christopher. You are the little boy I never Knew and the little boy I will never forget. Close

Praying for Gods Peace  / Kelly (Sister in Christ )

I am so truly saddened once again by this tragedy that came upon your family.  Little Christopher looks so much like my little boy who is 6 and their smiles are so similar.  My son's name is Gabriel and his birthday is in Januari also.  2002. 

I cannot even begin to understand the pain you must go through everyday knowing what these monsters did to your son.  I know they say that time heals all wounds but it seems sometimes these wounds are just too big. I pray that God continues daily to guide you and your family as you grieve and remember the loss of this precious boy.  Think how sad this made our father in Heaven when this evil came upon little Christopher.  I pray that somehow you will find the strength through God to testify of Gods goodness and let His light shine through you and to your other children.  There will be justice someday.  It might not be in this life but it will be in the next life.   Christopher looked like such a sweet loving little boy I'm sure you miss him terribly.  Just remember you will see him again someday in our Heavenly Fathers arms.  He is safe and no harm can come to him now.

 

God bless you Barrios family and to all your remaining children.  Take precious care of each one of them as they are all a gift from God.  You are in my prayers during the trial and then into the future.  Remember God has you all in the palm of His great and mighy hand and He is the one who is the ultimate Judge! 

 

God bless you all and God bless you precious Christopher.

Poem written by Sandra Cooper.  / Julio Cuesta (Adopted Grandfather )
Little boy with those heavenly eyes
Play in the clouds up in the sky.
You've touched so many who cry over you
And left us too early with our hearts broke in two.
I pray every night for the family you loved
And send hugs and kisses to you up above.
For sweet little angel I can't sleep at night.
I toss and I turn as I turn on the light.
I think of the hurt that you must have known
At the hands of those monsters so scared and alone.
Now at God's side you play once again
With many new angels that are now your friends.
Rest in peace sweet Christopher and know that we cared
Safe in the arms of our God now and no longer scared.

On Maart the 8th of 2007
A beautiful angel was welcomed in Heaven.
A child so special that God called him home
To sit at his side on his almighty throne.
We don't understand it and ask dear Lord why
Such a beautiful boy so young had to die.
Six years old and just starting to live
taken too early with so much love to give.
Sweet little angel; I will never forget you.
When I kiss my babies it's a kiss for you too.
With Heaven as your playground again I see your smile.
Play hard beautiful Christopher you are a very loved child .
Till the day we meet in Heaven.
