Chris was born June 10, 1979, in Hale Center, TX, to Rafael Flores and Josefa Rivera Gloria. A lifelong resident of Olton, Chris filled every room he entered with laughter, energy, and joy. Though he viewed the world through the eyes of a child, he possessed a heart larger than life and a spirit that touched everyone fortunate enough to know him.
Chris graduated from Frenship High School in 2000, a moment his family remembers fondly as he crossed the stage with a triumphant smile and his hands raised high in celebration. He found happiness in life’s simple pleasures and embraced each day with enthusiasm. Chris loved to sing, dance, and rap. He never met a plate of pizza, spaghetti, or ice cream he didn’t enjoy. He enjoyed playing with his Hot Wheels, enjoyed coloring books, Disney movies, and bowling.
He was preceded in death by his father; his mother; his stepfather; and a brother.
Survivors include his seven sisters; numerous nieces, nephews, extended family members, and friends.
