CJ was blessed with a large and loving family. He was a Mama’s Boy to the fullest and there wasn’t anything he wouldn’t do for her. CJ was one of a kind. His laugh, personality and humor, and everything about him was contagious. He excelled at anything he did and was smart, walking at only 8 months and saying his abc’s just barely over 1 year old. He would sing the song “Picture” by Kid Rock and Cheryl Crow. He was known for having a baby face and gorgeous smile.

CJ enjoyed being with family and friends. His favorite things to do were skateboarding, video games, cooking and beating up his little sister McKenzie who so many thought was his twin, even though they are exactly 3 years and one day apart. He was very protective of all his siblings but most of all of her, his baby sister Kenzie.

His favorite singers were Wiz Khalifa and NBA YoungBoy. He an adventurous person and the Black Hills was the place he loved to be, and allowed him to be free with his friends who meant the world to him and would do anything for him.
