XSTADDICT FANS (BAY CITY, MICHIGAN)

Toledo, OH, Christopher William Bates, passed away suddenly November 3, 2011, at home. He was born in Toledo on August 23, 1985 to Bill Bates and Dori Carper. He was a 2003 graduate of Bay City Central High School in Bay City, MI. He was a hard worker since the age of 14. He worked for Ponderosa Steak House in Bay City, MI and moved back to Toledo and worked for Great Lakes Windows, Resource Reclamation, and most currently was employed at Custom Deco. He was an avid fan of Ohio State, Cincinnati Bengals, Detroit Lions and Cleveland Browns. He loved playing pool and darts and at one time was on a league. He had several tattoos, each having a special meaning to him. His dream was to be a RNB singer. He loved all kinds of music and wrote his own music and recorded his own CD. He was a person who had a heart of gold and always extended his hand to help others and always put others before himself. He could always make you laugh and his greatest joy in life was his little girl whom he called "munchkin". He is survived by his daughter, Carissa Bates; father, Bill Bates; mother, Dori Carper; brothers, Joshua Pallitta and Daniel Morse and many others. I felt the need to publish another obituary as you deserved more. Your life was short but had meaning. I and others will miss your smile that was like sunshine. Your laugh that was music to the ears. I will miss the chats we had at all times of the day. You were like a son to me. I hope your dreams come true and you're singing with angels. You will always be in my thoughts and prayers. May you be at peace my son. Love and Prayers. B.A. (AKA) Mom #2.
