I will always love Chris farley no matter what!
I love you Chris, you will always live In my heart!
I will never ever forget you.
no matter what Chris did In his life, I still love that sweet man!
I think Chris Farley and his death are still very present in our minds. Maybe it's a Generation Y thing.
ohhh, its an 'excerpt'. I guess that's how you get around copyright infringement. Nice read, I enjoyed it. shadenfreude or whatever, man. still wondering if that's a rosary he's got there. Sad story.
He was an amazing man, but an even better ninja.
I think I could talk and read of Chris for hours. This man battled with things many people do everyday, he was just someone that needed help from those around him, he was too weak to handle it alone. I know they cared for him but they also did nothing because they were all doing the same thing, maybe just at a smaller scale. Chris I love you and love to watch your movies, I laugh as if I have never seen them before. I know you are in heaven with our maker, he knows you battled with the devil inside yourself but truly wanted to be different. You were a Christian man and it is very sweet that you were able to admit you needed help and show your weakness, many ppl do not do that. It shows you have a pure heart, I wish I could have known you. My hearts breaks even over a decade later.
RIP Chris Farley, you were more than a "fatty that falls down to make ppl laugh" YOU WERE A TRUE SOUL. God Bless you.
