Memorial Website - C. Christopher "Chris" Schupp
This memorial website was created to remember our beloved son and brother, C. Christopher "Chris" Schupp who was born in Fairfax, VA on June 7, 1983 and became an angel on August 8, 2008 in Myrtle Beach, S.C. You will live forever in our memories and hearts. We love you Christopher and miss you so much!!!! YOU ARE FOREVER YOUNG!!!
To bring you to our minds.
The days we do not think of you
Are very hard to find.
Each morning when we awake,
We know that you are gone.
And no one knows the heartache
As we try to carry on.
Our hearts still ache with sadness
And secret tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you
No one will ever know.
Our thoughts are always with you,
Your place no one can fill.
In life we loved you dearly;
In death we love you still,
There will always be a heartache,
And often a silent tear.
But always a precious memory
Of the days when you were here.
If tears could make a staircase,
And heartaches make a lane,
We'd walk the path to heaven
And bring you home again.
We hold you close within our hearts;
And there you will remain,
To walk with us throughout our lives
Until we meet again.
Our family chain is broken now,
And nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one,
The chain will link again.

Please take a moment and light a candle for Christopher to honor his memory. He lives forever!
ASCENSION
And if I go,
While you're still here...
Know that I live on,
Vibrating to a different measure
--behind a thin veil you cannot see through
You will not see me,
So you must have faith
I wait for the time when we can soar together again,
--both aware of each other
Until then, live your life to its fullest
And when you need me,
Just whisper my name in your heart
...I will be there
SIGNIFICANCE OF THE DATE 08.08.08:

“You were taken on angel's wings
As you sweetly and quietly slept
And returned to heaven before we knew
That you had even left
Our hearts are heavy and sorrowed
That our time with you was so brief
For you were our gift of heaven's light
That is now replaced with grief
But not so much that we won't be grateful
For every second you were here
You filled our hearts with so much joy
Treasured memories we'll hold forever dear”
Silent Tear.
Each night I shed a silent tear,
As I speak to you in prayer.
To let you know I love you,
And just how much I care.
Take the million teardrops,
Wrap them up in love,
Then ask the wind to carry them,
To you in heaven above.
Are there birthdays in Heaven?
Does the angel blow his horn?
Announcing to everybody
That this is the day you were born?
Can the stars be your balloons
And angel food your cake?
Presents wrapped in moonbeams
All the angels helped to make.
Birthdays meant so much to you
They were always a big deal
Birthday presents, lots of friends
And perhaps a special meal.
So I’ll whisper a little prayer today
Asking everyone up above
To sing you a Happy Birthday song
And give you all my love.
~From “Down the Cereal Aisle” p. 133~
Today is my birthday
Celebrate my life with you
And remember the good times
Not the bad and
Do not be sad;
Look up towards the sun
And catch every ray of light
Upon your cheek.
For I am there with you.
Today is my birthday
Be happy for me
I lived short, but full
I had the pleasure of love
And the joy of my family.
Do not be sad
Look up towards the stars
And catch each twinkle
In your heart.
For I am there with you
Today is my birthday
My legacy is not wealth
Or mighty belongings,
My legacy is you and your life.
Spend it wisely and carefully
Guard it always
Do not be sad
Feel the wind on your face
And in your hair
And know that I loved you
For I am there with you in your laughter
And in your hearts.
Today is my birthday
Learn to live again without me,
Take my strength with you
For you are not alone.
Do not be sad
Feel the rain on your face
Feel all life's treasures and
Know that you are alive!
At each step of the way
I will help you
For I am with you always
Until we meet again.
Today is my birthday...

My beloved son..............I miss your voice, your laughter, your beautiful smiling face and your hugs!!!!!!!!!! I wish I could turn back the clock and change the events that took your life at such a young age. Remember our trip to OBX and cooking burgers outside on the grill? I miss you so much! You are with me everyday and every night 24/7. Love you forever and ever, Mommy

| Every Day |
You walk beside me Every Day.
The days are long without you here, I've sat and cried a thousand tears,
that cruel fate did my life destroy and take away my lovely boy.
But you can wipe my tears away, you walk beside me every day.
The looming years that, more or less, just fill me with unhappiness,
are speckled with some happy times, when rainbows brighten up the skies.
I know you're never far away, you walk beside me every day.
There will be anniversaries and celebrations that you'll miss,
Oh, Christopher, how we'll miss you then, your hearty laugh, your cheeky grin.
But you'll be there, you'll find a way, you walk beside us every day.
Sometimes I dream that I'm awake and find it's all a big mistake,
that you are here, you're safe and well! With hugs and smiles and tales to tell!
And in my mind I hear you say, "I walk beside you, every day."
The road ahead is hard and steep, with hills to climb and furrows deep,
and life will never be as good as when you, here beside us, stood.
But we believe that here you stay, you walk beside us every day.
At night you gently touch my cheek and memories are mine to keep,
of my sweet son, so deeply missed, since that first day your head I kissed.
Inside my heart forever stay and walk beside every day.

My Christopher
I drove away that morning, without a backward glance,
I didn't know that moment was going to be our last.
The last time I would hold you or see your lovely face,
the last time I would kiss you and feel your strong embrace.
So solid and so real, so vibrant and alive,
a happy face with twinkling eyes, my fine young man, my child.
My first-born son, my Christopher, the apple of my eye,
so cruelly taken from me, I never said goodbye.
The shattered remnant of my heart is strangely beating still,
with holes so black and fathomless no light could ever fill.
I don't know how I face each day without my darling boy.
Gone is all the happiness, the love of life, the joy.
The months stretch on before me, so bleak and dark and long,
I pray you walk beside me, son, and help to keep me strong.
And when my life is over, come to me on that day,
and smile at me and hold me tight and carry me away.
The wind that whispers through the trees, the brightest star at night,
a rainbow on a dismal day, a shaft of golden light,
All these are signs you send to me, a message from above,
that even death can't break the bonds of Son and Mother Love...
