Chester Ray Cross II was born October 24, 1982, to Chester Ray Cross I (Big Chet) & Tamila Cross (Tammy) in Indianapolis, Indiana
Chet as he was referred to us by, lived life to the fullest! He treated each day as a new adventure. His tough exterior hid a heart of gold, and he had a remarkable ability to make everyone laugh and feel welcome. Chet was never at a loss for friends and was always the life of the party. What truly mattered was his willingness to go to great lengths for those he cared about. He lived life on his own terms and retained a youthful spirit.
He is survived by his parents Tammy Cross and Dennis Brackenridge his sister April Cross, and two sons Michael & Bentley Cross.








Hey Chet. I pray that you are in peace. you are too young to be gone from this earth. April, I love you girl. you and your momma are in my prayers. LOVE YOU
We are so very sorry for the loss of Chet. We love you Cross Family .
To know him was to love him. He lived with us for awhile years ago. My husband Mike wasn’t sure about it till he recognized a kindred spirit in him. I refer to my husband Mike as my 7th kid. That was Chet. No matter his age the sweet, joyful kid in his was always there with a smile. There ability to find humor in most things (sarcasam) bonded that as well.
They stayed up late talking, laughing.. drinking in the back room.
When I told my husband about Chet he said, Damm.. Not Chet. He was my friend. Then he told me what they did in that room. They raced computers. I have zero idea about that but it’s a thing. They were trying to beat a record and the computer was overheating. Almost there my husband was at a loss but not Chet. He grabbed the ac unit from the window manhandled it over to the computer- Success – Mike cracked up telling me about it.
Anyone who knows my husband will say he’s the Smartest guy I know. Ask my husband and he’ll say the Smartest guy I know is Chet and the kindest.
To know him was to love him and we did.
No matter what , I will always love you. You was there , when I needed support on just a silly question. Or even for work. You kept telling me daily how you were feeling love, and to tell no one babe. And I won’t. Miss you so much Chester Ray 🙁 See you soon
