Christian, the son of Shalair Armstrong and Eric Cousins , had a quiet, gentle spirit and a kind heart that touched everyone who knew him. Christian loved his friends and his family so much, and we all loved him so much.
During this incredibly sensitive time, we kindly ask for privacy as we navigate our grief. We know how much you all loved Christian and care for our family. Right now, your prayers and thoughts mean the world to us. If you wish to reach out , please consider sending a text rather than calling.
Thank you for your love, understanding and support”
