If you ever had the privilege of knowing Chris—or any member of the Meeks family—then you already understand the kind of love, loyalty, and warmth they offer so freely. From the moment you met them, you weren’t just a friend—you were family. And Chris embodied that spirit more than anyone. He had a way of making everyone feel seen, heard, and valued. Whether it was a quick-witted joke, a perfectly timed wisecrack, or just his easygoing presence, Chris could light up any room. His humor and heart were unmatched, and no matter what you were going through, he had a way of making things feel a little bit lighter.
Losing someone like Chris leaves a space that can never truly be filled, especially for those who loved him most. The Meeks family has always been the kind of people to give without hesitation—to open their doors, their hearts, and their lives to anyone in need. Now, in this moment of unimaginable grief, we have the opportunity to give something back.
We’re asking for your support to help ease the financial burden of Chris’s funeral expenses. This is a time for the community—his extended family in every sense of the word—to come together and show the Meeks family that they are not alone. No donation is too small, and every gesture of kindness, every share, every word of love and remembrance means more than we can say.
Please help us honor Chris’s memory in a way that reflects the love and joy he gave so many. Thank you for your support
