Tulsa Family Mourns 22-Year-Old Father, Fiancé Killed In Motorcycle Crash

A 22-year-old man who was engaged to be married and a father to a little girl has died after a motorcycle crash earlier this week.

His family said Chris Miller was funny, outgoing, and giving, and now his three-year-old daughter will have to grow up without him.

"He was so bubbly," said Chris’ fiancée Brianna Bellcriss. "He put a smile on everybody's face."

Bellcriss said she met Chris when they were in 7th grade, and they've been together for five years. Together, they raised three-year-old Kyleigh.

"He was such a good father," said Bellcriss. "He loved his daughter so much."

Tulsa police officers said Chris got on the eastbound ramp of I-244 from 1st Street early Wednesday morning on his motorcycle. They said he lost control, hit a concrete barrier and died.

"I can't even believe this has happened," said Chris’ aunt Bailey Linker. "Our family will never be the same."

Linker said Chris had big dreams. She said he was smart and learned quickly, and he loved working on cars.

"His passion was to build, he loved building cars," said Bellcriss. 

His uncle Matthew Parker said Chris could talk to anybody and made everybody laugh. But most of all, Chris was a loving fiancé to Bellcriss, and a proud dad to his little girl.

"He always involved her in anything," Parker said.

The family is holding on to one other, and all those who loved Chris, to get through this.

"I can't even process it fully," said Linker. "He was such a great person. Anyone that met them, he left an imprint."

"There will always be a part of me gone," Bellcriss said. To support Chris’ family, click on the GoFundMe link here.
