MORE TRIBUTES TO TRAGIC CHRISTOPHER

More tributes have been made to a 15-year-old boy who was found dead at his home at Upper Dicker.

Christopher James Gray (15) was discovered at the home he shared with his family in Coldharbour Road late on Sunday evening last week.

Ambulance crews rushed to the scene but despite attempts to save him at the house, en-route to the District General Hospital and at the hospital itself, he died.

He was a student at Ringmer Community College.

Chris was a really great friend who was always there to lend a hand or a hug. He made me and and our whole form laugh uncountable times in the last few years. I will never forget him, he touched my life and many others. I miss him so much already.

Becky Knight, 15, Ringmer Community College

Loved by everyone

Christopher Gray has been our closest neighbour, along with his parents and

sister, for the last four and a half years.

He was a charming, kind,

intelligent and relaxed boy, adored by his parents and, as has become

apparent, by so many others.

Our deepest sympathies to his family.

Thank you to the Sussex Express for organising these online tributes.

Annabel and Matthew Streets, Lower Dicker

I don't know if Chris had any idea how many people's lives he touched, but I

think if he could see us all now, he would feel proud of the fact that he

meant so much to so many people.

Chris Gray will never leave us, he will still be very much alive in our

memories and our hearts forever.

Chloe Powell, 15, Ringmer Community College

Chris,

I'll never forget that time you went to see Athlete and left before the end

because you didn't realise they would come back on stage. Made me laugh so

much when I told you about it the day after. A great memory and I always

laugh when I think about it.

I know we weren't really close friends but you were still a good

friend, made me laugh whenever I talked to you and I will never forget you.

When I left Ringmer you said 'See ya at college!'

I wish that could still

happen.

Your death has changed many peoples lives and I wish you were still with us

to see the impact you have had on people. Miss you Chris and love you

forever! Goodbye.
