Christian Anthony Tullis was a dream come true from the day he entered the earth, 16 years ago, on July 7, 2006 in Slidell, Louisiana. Christian passed from God's Earthly Kingdom into God's Heavenly Kingdom on November 11, 2022.  Christian is the Son of Danny and Diana Calamari Tullis, Brother of three loving siblings, Ansley, Ali, and Collin, and Grandson of Daniel and Theresa Calamari and Neda Tullis (the late Luther Tullis).  Christian is an alumnus of Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic School (Class of 2019) and a junior classmate of Pope John Paul II Catholic High School (Class of 2024).

Christian was always a peacemaker and a Christ-like child, living up to his name of Christian.  He was full of personality and joyfulness with a contagious smile and could make anyone laugh with his silly jokes.  Christian was so sweet to his parents and family, loving them unconditionally.

Christian was kind-hearted, fun-loving, and always wanted his siblings, Ansley, Ali, and Collin, to shine.  Christian's work ethic was incredible.  He was amazing at football, basketball, and volleyball. He was well on his way to earning a college scholarship.  Christian had an amazing top-spin jump-serve in volleyball and helped his Dad (Danny Tullis) and Mom (Diana Calamari Tullis) to train many state and national volleyball players.  Christian truly embodied his favorite Bible verse, "I can do all things, through Christ who strengthens me" Philippians 4:13.

As faith-filled Catholics, Christian and his beloved girlfriend, Emily, recently received the Sacrament of Confirmation.  St. Anthony was Christian's patron saint, and Christian now joins him in Heaven.

Christian and God have sent many signs of Christian's arrival in heaven, especially through the number 7, which is described as the perfect number in the Holy Bible.  Christian's birthday is July 7, 2006 (7/7). Christian's Pope John Paul II Catholic High School football jersey number is #7.  Christian gifted 7 of his vital organs through organ donation to help those in need.  Since his passing through God's Earthly Kingdom into God's Heavenly Kingdom, it seems that Christian now enjoys sending 7s from heaven to us here on earth.  Christian is watching to see who will catch his next 7 and wants you to know that he is with God and God is with you.

A Catholic Funeral Mass for Christian Anthony Tullis will take place on Monday, November 21, 2022 at Our Lady of Lourdes Church (400 Westchester Blvd.) in Slidell, Louisiana.  Visitation will begin at 10:00am; Funeral Mass will begin at 1:00pm; Celebration of Life Reception will begin following the Mass in the Our Lady of Lourdes School Gymnasium.

In lieu of flowers, the Tullis family has requested donations to be made to Pope John Paul II High School for the continuation of the PJP Gymnasium repairs.
