Not sure what to say?

I think of you all often. I still come to Westfield to visit my daughter and family, even though we live in Maine now. Re-reading this remembrances helps me know Chris even more. What a great guy!!

Chris I barely knew you; I remember only a shy but adorable kid coming to visit my mom on Great Diamond Island. I am still saddened that life keeps us twirling in so many directions that I never got to know you better. What I do know is that you have some of the best parents around. Ann and Dick are examples of light and love in a sometimes very dark world. I am sure only their faith in God and the plan He has for you kept them able to put one foot in front of the other when you left them...

Chris you are always in the hearts and souls of those who knew and loved you. It does not matter how much time goes by, you are fresh and present always. Much love to you and the family who mourns your absence. Until we all meet again, rest in peace cousin.

I am just learning of this sad news. I think I only met Chris once, but remember him as shy and sweet. He shared the same birthday as his uncle Chris and great aunt Dorothy. Only special people are born on that day. Ann, Dick and Erin, I cannot imagine your pain so I send you all my deepest love and prayers that you get a comforting glimpse of how this fits in to a bigger plan. So much love to you all. Godspeed Chris❤

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.

Chris was a good friend he was the type of guy that would give you the shirt off his back. He was the type of guy who would sit and listen to you no matter what was going on , the type who would try to help anyone if they asked. He has helped me many times over the years by just being a good friend and listening when no one else wanted to. I could probably write for hours all the memories I have of Chris over the past 20 years we got to know each other pretty well. He was getting real...

Chris was such a special person and it was a privilege to know him. Getting to know his parents a little bit showed me where his charm and intelligence came from. I will never forget him. May God bring peace and comfort to all who knew and loved him.

Dear Cahill Family,
Roger and I are so sorry for your loss and send prayers for your strength and comfort. We remember Chris as a cute and active little boy who used to play and swim with our neice and nephew. Sincerely, Roger and Rhanee Simon

Chris was my neighbor and one of my closest friends growing up. We grew apart after high school, but I've thought of him often, and fondly. This breaks my heart. Sending all of my love and strength to the Cahill family.
