To the whole Reavus family, I am inspired and love your story. After hearing and experiencing a great presentation at the Louisa County High School auditorium, I want to be more like Chris and inspire others to do the same. Thank you all so much and you have truly made a big difference to everyone that had the chance to visit this website or get the charm of hearing the presentation first-hand!
When you came to speak for the middle school, I was so moved. Not gonna lie, I cried quite a bit, what your doing is amazing, and someday I would like to shake YOUR hand, just like you did with your coach.

Keep doing what your doing!! YOU are changing peoples lives and perspectives, and Im praying you continue living your best life with your wife, children, and community.

God loves you!!!
When you came to Louisa county to speak in front of hundreds of kids I thought that you were very brave, I could never do that, and your story made my eyes water, i am going through something difficult my self with my mom, but I justed loved your story, and I think that you should keep telling it around the nation and I will always remember the day you came to my school and told that story

As I listened to your story at louisa county high school, i thought wow what a great message to share with the world and yes i think you should continue to share your brothers story.
You are great at what you are doing Mr.Reavis keep on doing it i haven´t felt that emotional in a while and i hope peace for your wife and your family and may god be with you. sincerely Noah Payne:)

Your presentation at our school, Louisa County Middle School, was amazing. You're so strong for going up there and telling us your story. I can not put into words how moved I felt your spectacular speech. I wore a green shirt, and jeans with a ponytail and told you my name. Lilyanne Wilson, and to never give up no matter what. I hope one day my kids hear your story.
I really enjoyed listening to all of the thoughtful and heartwarming stories that you shared with us. Thank you for sharing these amazing stories.
Thank you for coming to my school I loved your storys thank you.
Keep showing people the power of kindness cause this power is the most likely to spread to others in a positive way. -NH
I loved it because he was so sweet, and it wasn't boring at all. He explained everyone greatly, and they sound awesome.
I really think you should go to more schools and tell this story. You speaking about your parents really made me think about my parents and how much they do for me and care for me. I think you telling this story more and more will make more people feel this way.
Great program. I hope you continue to share your stories and spread kindness.
The speech was very inspirational and helped a lot
The presentation was very nice and I am so glad you shared it.
I liked hearing what u said and you should continue telling your story. we love you.

You should be proud of yourself for doing this and, you should not just have this speech in front of kids but, also adults -BH
That was a really good presentation and it means a lot! Thanks for sharing that with us.
I think that your message was amazing and you should do it again.I honestly think that teens especially middle schoolers do need to learn how to be happy. Another thing that I think is that everyone should get to share their story because you never know when you will find someone who needs to hear that story.
I'm a happy person, and even I learned something, I think everybody learned something. I think you should continue sharing you story with others, so others can learn your story to.
Thank you for what you do!!!
Your story was truly inspiring and changed my mind on how I see kindness. To know what you have been through and still tell your story and teach us kindness is truly and I mean truly amazing! Don't stop what you're doing keep telling your story and kindness to inspirer more and more people.
I LOVED IT, SO INSPIRING!
I'm a student from LCMS and I think the program was great and it should definitely be presented more.
