"No matter were we go in life, we have to realze that one day that we will be in the best place anyone could
ever dream of...Heaven"
Chris, you were the greatest friend I think I will ever of
had the privilage to have. You made me smile all the time. You knew how to brighten up my day. Even though sometimes I wanted
to tell you to shut-up, you always made me laugh. I titled your page "It's raining men" because on Freshman slave day you
had to dress up as a girl in a dress with an umbrella with pictures of guys on it and sing "it's raining men". WOW, I never
laughed so hard. And in biology class, when you wouldn't get over the stupid endoplasmic retuculum! lol. And thank you so
much for my valentine's day present, I keep that little pig right on my bed. I will never ever get rid of that pig. Everyone
says "it's just a stupid stuffed animal", but it's not just a stuffed animal to me, it helps me to remember you. I love you
Chris. I miss you more then any words could ever say. Your always going to be my west coast brother, and I'll always be your
east coast sister.
A little more about Chris....
Christopher A. Sterbinsky, aged 15 years, of Phillipston, beloved
son of Stephen R. and Lena R. (Bryant)Sterbinsky, died unexpectedly Friday in Athol Memorial Hospital in Athol after being
stricken ill at home.
He was born in Memphis, Tennessee on January 20, 1988 and moved here six years ago. Christopher
was planning to enter his sophomore year at Narraganset Regional High School in Baldwinville this September where he was an
