Christian Rose was the second son of Tavarius and Dezeray Rose, and a beloved brother to Nikko, Treydan, and Ashton.  He was born on October 7, 2006, in Missouri City, Texas.  From the beginning he kept his parents on their toes.  He was a mama'sboy through and through full of life, energy, and big emotions.  He felt everything deeply and loved with his whole heart.

As a baby, Christian couldn't quite pronounce his own name – it came out sounding like "Chicken Rose.  So, of course his mom teased him lovingly with that nickname every since.  That name stiuck in the most endearing way.

As a child, he had a love for sneaking snacks – whether it wsgrabbing something he wasn't supposed to have or standing in the kitchen with a can of whipped cream, pouring it straight into his mouth. He would always say it was not him that broke the nozzle on the can.  This is a habit that has now been mischievously passed on to his little brothers.

Every birthday his mom would ask him if there was anything special, he would like to eat and every birthday he had the same response "tuna helper."  There were usually two meals served on those days, his tuna helper and the rest of the family's dinner.  That was just him.

Christian and his older brother, Nikko, were inseparable.  He challenged dhis parents, stretched them, and taught his family more about love, patience, and loyalty than they could have everimagined.

Growing up, he excelled in football, loved basketball, and found joy and expression in music.  Christian ha d hug personality and was super, hilarious energy that made him unforgettable.  His laugh was infectious and giggly.  He loved hard, almost to his detriment.

He loved to read and draw. He was full of promise – a loving son and brother, and departed this life far too soon.  His absence has left a deep void in the hearts of his family and everyone who knew and loved him.

He is preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, Kenneth and Gloria Six, maternal great grandfather, William Brown, paternal great grandmothers, Ruby Gailes and Clara Marshall.  He is survived by parents, TaVarus and Dezeray Rose; brothers, Nikko, Treydan, and Ashton; paternal grandparents Kenneth K. Rose, Jr. and Belinda Gailes, maternal great grandmother. Lisa Brown, paternal great grandfather, Clarence Gailes, and a host of aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.

Christian's selfless spirit and boundless generosity has left andindelible mark on all who knew him.  He may no longer be with us but the laughter, love and unforgettable memories he gave us will live on forever.  His light will never be forgotten.
