Not sure what to say?

I am just found out about Chris' passing and am so sad. While I always meant to get back in touch with her as we lived just a few blocks apart, we did lose touch over the years. But my time with her at Executive Travel have been some of the best memories I have of my working life. She was such a jokester and we loved playing pranks on our teammates on the company retreats we went on. We spent a lot of time laughing, while arranging trips. After we both went our own ways, I would hear of her...

Dear Andrew,
I am Pascale Duret from France. I was the French friend of Susan, when she came to France in 1985. Then I got to meet you in Oregon in 1990 and your mother came to visit in Paris in 2004.
I was so sorry to hear, a few days ago, about her death.
We got along pretty well together, the few times we met and I always thought she was very courageous after what happened to Susan, as well as your father was.
Please find herewith my email address and send me some news about...

Cher Andrew et toute la famille Mc Clave.
Je vous présente mes plus sincères condoléances pour le décès de Christine.
Je suis la maman de Pascale. Suzanne était venue chez nous pendant 25 jours.
Elle avait 17 ans. Elle était une jeune fille formidable et très correcte.
La vie est parfois injuste . Toute notre vie nous garderons leurs mémoires en souvenir.
Avec mon amitié sincère.
Anne-Marie Duret

Dear Andrew and family, Chris was a wonderful woman, I truly enjoyed my interactions with her over the years. She was kind and generous with me in the face of her own tragedy, which was such a gift of support. I will miss her. My thoughts are with you for peace and healing.

Dear Andrew and family,
I am so sorry for the loss of your wonderful mom. Chris was one of the strongest people I've known, and she loved her family more than anything in the world. I've lost touch through the years, but I've never forgotten my connection with you, Susan, Don, and Chris. I know she is in peaceful rest with Susan and Don. Love to you, Chrissy Kirkmire Mazzola San Francisco

When I walk into the ladies' locker room at CECC and see Chris' locker, it's hard to process that we won't ever see her bright smile and hear her happy laugh again. Chris was such a caring, humble soul with a great sense of humor and a welcoming nature. My sincere condolences to you Andrew. I pray that the knowledge that she is with God, your Dad, and your sister will give you peace.

Chris was truly a warm-hearted caring and giving person. She was always a great listener and tried to show understanding, not a judgment. She had a gift of accepting people just the way we are. I miss playing golf with her. I miss listening to her experience traveling to China. She had a great sense of humor! At Kathys July the 4th party, sitting at the doorstep looking at the stars and the fireworks with you would always remain in my heart. Thank you for leaving us warmth,...

Chris was a steady, patient and giving friend and support to so many of us who loved her for her beautiful eyes, her laugh, her wit and her dedication to anyone in need. She had a gift of listening intently & uninterruptedly to whomever she was talking to. A beautiful woman who we were blessed to know. May God grant Chris eternal rest in His Loving Kingdom, Andrew, and may Our Dear Lord bring peace to you and your loved ones as well. We all grieve with you and will miss her immensely....
