Vinnie, Ramona, Linda… and the rest of my family,
I know there are no words I can say to make things better but let it be known that I cry with you and share your grief. I still am shaken and having a hard time dealing with it. The countless memories are being replayed in my head. Chris was a living angel, lots of fun and laugh and part of us, spending many hours with my son and entertaining him. He was often there to help with the yard and fix the computer. I can only think that he is now our angel looking down us from Heaven. HUGZZZZ and much LUVVVV

Hey Ramona, Vinnie and Family….
My heart is dark, my stomach sick. Nothing could have prepared me for the news I heard. I know nothing I can say will make the situation better. I too cry. Chris was our angel as well. He provided us and my son with many laughs and good times. My parents loved him always helping out whether in the yard or on the computer. He will never be forgotten and I can only think he will now be part of our team watching over us from above.

I will always remember his laughter and kindness. There are no words to describe how much he will be missed, but I know God's newest angel will be smiling down on us and waiting for the day we will be reunited. Meanwhile he has family there who I am sure have welcomed him home. My thoughts and prayers are with Ramona and Mike and his family during this time.
