Christian Wilson-Gartside Memorial

Christian was a fun, whitty boy who loved the outdoors and flying airplanes with his papa Clay. He enjoyed his time with his friends roller skating and playing baseball. He had the most unconditional love for all of his family. Christian just finished his 7th grade year at Castle Rock middle school. Summer break had just began and what better way to celebrate than a day at the lake. Unfortunately, his body was not strong enough to stay afloat and despite many efforts, Christian lost his life in Lake Elmo Thursday June 11th. He leaves behind his mother Christine Wilson, little brother Malachi and his father Andrew Gartside as well as an enormous amount of family and friends who loved him dearly.
His very unexpected and tragic death has devastated this entire family! Many efforts are needed in the cost of funeral services among other things. Any help for this family is greatly appreciated. Thank you and God Bless.
