Connolly was a big part of my life and growing up. Amazing guy. Some of the best times of my life were spent with him and all of our friends. We will all miss him very much.

I wish I had known Connolly better. What I did know of him was that he treated me with warmth and kindness whenever I saw him. I was always delighted to be in his company, and I will miss him.

To Connolly's family. I am so saddened to hear of Connolly's passing. He always encouraged others and was a kind man. I truly appreciated our working relationship. Blessings to Connolly on his journey and to all his family. May the road rise to meet him.

Dear Michelle--YOu likely did not know, but Connolly was kind of a guiding light from the time I was assigned a judge in Santa Monica past my retirement when we saw each other at UCLA events. I was blessed to know him and to have met you at the various events he loved so much. He will always have a place in my heart. Linda Lefkowitz (310)454-1489

When I started working for Connolly, he took to me to a Court hearing with him. When he checked in with the Clerk, he told the Clerk that Opposing Counsel wanted her to go ask the Judge why he was still back in Chambers and was taking so long to come out. It was my first taste of his hilarious ways, and, I learned that only Connolly could get away with such antics! For the rest of our time together he only got funnier! Connolly was one in a Million. I will miss him terribly.

Dear Michelle
Amy just made me aware of Connolly's passing. I remember his wit, intelligence and the kind hospitality he and you extended to me at various holiday affairs I attended at your lovely homes. He was a presence for sure and certainly at Hillstone's counter at lunch. The candle is my message of well wishes to you and your family during this time of transition.
Fondly .....,

Michelle, I am so saddened to hear of the loss of your tremendous Connolly -- funny, magnetic, generous and loving. Our family is thinking of yours and wishing you the strength to endure this pain and at the same time the ability to re-discover all the beautiful memories you have made over so many years together.
