Remembering Christopher Raymond Paschke: Best Moments & Memories
I’m asking all of you who knew Chris for help. I am creating a collection of memories of Chris for our son, Atlas.
Photos, videos, stories, little moments, inside jokes, the things he used to say a lot, or even the everyday things that make you think of him. No memory is too small, and nothing needs to be polished or perfect.
Atlas is only two years old. While I will always tell him how deeply and fiercely he was loved by his dad, I also want to gather as much as I can, and him to know Chris through the voices of the people who knew him in ALL the different seasons of his life. Your memories, shared in your own words, will help give Atlas pieces of his dad that he may not otherwise get to experience.
You can share something now, later, or anytime it comes to mind, as many times as you’d like. Whether it’s meaningful, funny, random, or brief, it all matters, and it will all be cherished.
Along with sharing memories freely, I’ve included optional idea prompts to help guide you if you’re unsure where to start. Even one memory prompt a week for Atlas would mean more than I can put into words.
Thank you for helping me keep Chris’s memory alive for our son. 💙
If you have photos or videos of Chris, there are a few different ways you’re welcome to share them, whatever feels easiest for you.
You can email photos, videos, and written memories directly to: ChrisRaymondMemories@gmail.com
If you prefer, you’re also welcome to share photos and videos directly through Google Photos with the same email address as above or add them to the shared public album linked HERE.
If writing feels easier than uploading, you can simply email your memories as well. Whether it’s a long story, a short note, or something that just came to mind, it’s all meaningful. Please don’t feel any pressure to choose one “right” way or to have everything ready at once. Share in the way that feels most comfortable, and whenever the moment feels right.
Every photo, video, and memory shared helps me give Atlas a deeper connection to his dad, and becomes part of the story Atlas will grow up knowing, and I’m so thankful for your willingness to share.
