Not sure what to say?

Dear Madonna and Family,

Although I have not been in touch with you since our years at St. Eugene's (when your family surpassed mine in having the most kids), I have so often thought of you. My sister Jane sent along your son's obituary and it saddened me. But it also made me glad to hear of such a life well lived. I'm not surprised given that you are his mom. Nonetheless, I am so sorry for your loss. What a wonderful son. Blessings always, Katie Fischer

Dearest Jay, Madonna, Brandi, Parny, Bea and all of Chris's loving family and friends. Chris has given so much that it is little surprise he has also left much. You will have that gift to cherish for all the years to come. You are an amazing family. My deepest sympathy and prayers to you all.

I feel so lucky to have met Chris. What a bright star. He added a lot of beauty to this world.
My deepest condolences to Brandi, the kids, and all.

Dear Jorge, Madonna, Maddy Aguilar & Williams/Funk Family:
My deepest condolences with the passing of Chris. I am a friend of Jorge Aguilar. I never met Chris but thru Jorge's words he relayed what a wonderful/terrific person he was. My deepests sympathies, thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

Dear Jay,
I was introduced to you via e-mail by Jerry Stein and I just learned today from Trish of your son's passing. May his memory be a blessing to you and your wife in your time of mourning and beyond.

Michele is a dear friend of mine and through her I have heard about Chris. Reading about Chris, he was full of life and lived every moment to its fullest. His passion for giving was evident. My heartfelt thoughts and prayers go out to all of the family in this very difficult time.

Hello Madonna and Jay,
My deepest sympathies, thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. The two of you have been such great models for so many of our youth and for our community. May God bless you all and hold you close to him.

Chris was a phenomenal human being, father, friend, on and on. His love of life and generosity was extremely contagious. We will miss him deeply. Our deepest sympathies to Brandi, Parny and Bea.

Dear Jay and The Williams and Funk families:

I had the pleasure of working with Jay for many years at The ProvateBank, and not having met Chris, I can only appreciate and enjoy his character through the words of others. That being said, I wanted to extend my sincere sypmpathies to Jay and the whole group and will keep you all in our prayers. I am amazed at the strength of your family and you are a true model of what it truly means to enjoy and embrace life! I hope to see you on a...
