Christopher was an amazing person, he always liked to meet new people and always found good in everyone!!

We will remember him forever. We will always remember his big heart, his love for his Pit Bulls and his Himalayan Kitty (KeyKey) & of course, his love for his nephew, Zaiden.



Christopher also loved his church. He attended Hazelwood Baptist Church for a short period of time but was treated by the wonderful people there as a long time member. He felt loved and at home there!! We would like to thank Pastor Ed, his wife Jodi, and the congregation for making his last days on earth the best they could be. I appreciate all that were at his service in his memory. Special thanks go to Don and Melissa for helping him go back and forth to church each Sunday, some days during the week and also for the great food that they brought to us when we needed it most!

I know that Christopher would not want me to forget his best friend Derrick. Derrick and his girlfriend, Jasmine, were there both days in memory of Chris. He had been a good friend for a long time! Chris is now with his brother, Ryan who was also a good friend and died suddenly on 2/28/2003.

I would also like to thank his friend, Amy from WV for getting in touch with me after she heard.

I would also like to thank Delmas (Christopher's Uncle) for bringing his Aunt Duckie, Aunt Carol, Uncle Carl and Birdie to MD and being here in time for the funeral.    Thanks so much!!

I would also like to thank everyone from Alliance, Inc. Serafina, Victor, the rest of the staff and of course, his friends.   Thanks for picking him up 3 days a week. He enjoyed the program and the friends he made there. Thanks also coming to his services and bringing his friends too.

I would also like to thank everyone that helped us during this time! I'd like to thank Renee', she's not only a good friend (adopted member) of the family but she's the best. When she got the call that morning about Christopher she was here immediately and helped tremendously with the calls and support for all of us. I can't thank everyone personally but, if you helped in any way, or were just there for support, don't think that we have forgotten you because we haven't!!

This is Christopher' new friend in heaven and is across from him at their Chapel. His name is Sal and he passed away on 03/25/2005 at the age of 25.     Sal's video

These are Christopher' new friends in heaven, Corey and Michelle. They are buried in a beautiful mausoleum on the 2nd level like Christopher and Sal but in FL. They passed away on 08/17/2003 at the ages of 20 and 22.

Obituary - Friend - Minna Knighton 105 yrs old
Minna Knighton
[ Age 105 ] Centenarian was gifted with a keen memory and a talent for telling 'mesmerizing stories' about her life.
By Frederick N. Rasmussen | Sun reporter
March 12, 2008
Minna C. Knighton, who enjoyed regaling family and friends with stories gleaned from more than a century's worth of living, died Friday at Upper Chesapeake Hospital in Bel Air. The Baldwin resident was 105.
Mrs. Knighton, who had lived at Dulaney Valley Assisted Living in Baldwin since 2003, suffered a fall earlier in the week that contributed to her death.
Minna Clara Kopp was born at home on Fairmount Avenue, the eldest of seven children. In 1916, she moved to a home on Luzerne Avenue and worked in her family's nearby confectionary store while attending St. Elizabeth's Elementary School.
Mrs. Knighton worked as a bookkeeper until 1921, when she became a payroll clerk for $17 a week.
After marrying George Wilbur Knighton, a United Railways and Electric Co. streetcar motorman, in 1923, the couple settled into a home on Luzerne Avenue in East Baltimore.
Miss Kopp had caught the attention of her future husband as she walked by his house.
"He'd be sitting on his front porch and used to watch her get off the streetcar. He'd watch her through a small hole he made in the newspaper so he wouldn't be so obvious," said a niece, Mary Charlotte Layton of Lutherville, laughing.
"They finally met each other at St. Katharine of Siena Roman Catholic Church, and their first date was a moonlight cruise," she said. "Until the day she died, she always called him her 'Prince Charming.'"
In 1948, they purchased a lot in Tolchester overlooking the Chesapeake Bay, and later built a small vacation home there in 1953.
It became their permanent residence in 1970, and after her husband's death in 1983, Mrs. Knighton continued living there alone until 2001, when she moved into the Easton home of a niece and her husband.
"She was in her 90s and still did all of her own yardwork. She pushed a wheelbarrow, trimmed trees and worked in her garden," Mrs. Layton said.
Mrs. Knighton remained physically and mentally engaging.
"She never needed a walker and only carried a cane. She got herself up, made her bed and dressed each day. She was a very dignified lady who never wore slacks," her niece said, adding:
"She was also renowned for her excellent memory of dates, names, and birthdays of all her family and friends."
But it was Mrs. Knighton's repertoire of stories that captivated family members and friends.
"Aunt Minnie's memory was unbelievable, and she told the most mesmerizing stories. She made history come alive," Mrs. Layton said.
"She recalled reading a special edition of the newspaper about the sinking of the Titanic and that all passengers had been rescued," Mrs. Layton said. "She then woke up the next day to read that many lives were lost at sea."
Mrs. Knighton also had vivid memories of the day World War I ended.
"She always called it Armistice Day. She was working as a bookkeeper that day the war ended and recalled all the church bells ringing, whistles blowing and businesses closing to celebrate this historic occasion," her niece said. "She also said she got on board a pickup truck and rode through the streets with the driver blowing the horn."
But Mrs. Knighton wasn't one to dwell strictly in the past.
"Oh, she was right up on the presidential primaries and enjoyed watching the debates. She liked watching CNN, following the news, and discussing current events," her niece said.
"What kept her sharp was her reading. She was feisty and held onto her opinions. You could never put anything over on her because she'd say, 'What are you doing? I wasn't born yesterday.'"
Mrs. Knighton was also an avid lottery fan and would shush people so she could hear the lottery numbers when they came on TV, her niece said.
Mrs. Knighton's path to longevity was in eating only two meals a day - she gave up eating lunch in 1908 - Mrs. Layton said.
"She'd eat anything and wasn't a health food nut. She also loved ice cream, cakes and pies and blackberry wine. She never smoked," her niece said.
Religion was also a focus of her life.
"God always came first in her life and she tried hard to live a life that revolved around religion," Mrs. Layton said.
A Mass of Christian burial will be offered at 11 a.m. Monday at Immaculate Heart of Mary Roman Catholic Church at 8501 Loch Raven Blvd. in Baynesville.
Also surviving are a sister, Marie Kopp of Arbutus; and several other nieces and nephews.
