John Coleman Kiley IV

Very sorry to hear of your loss and your struggle to understand why such a thing should happen. My thoughts are with you and your family.

Dear John, Debbie and Marka,
Although I have never met you or Quatro, I am deeply saddened by the death of a wonderful young man who was my cousin. My grandfather, Joseph Michael Kiley, was a brother of John Coleman Kiley, and I learned of Quatro's death while doing research on my family history. My thoughts are with you during this anniversary time.

Dear Kiley family members:
I never knew Quatro but my sympathy is nonetheless strong. I cannot imagine the grief of losing a son or brother so young. My husband, William J. Kiley, was a cousin of yours. His grandfather, also named William J. Kiley, was the older brother of John Coleman Kiley the 1st in Boston.
Sincerely, Susan Kiley

Debbie: I just learned of the tragic death of your son. I cannot imagine a more unbearable loss. Our prayers are with you and your family at this time.

Dear Marka and Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I will always remember John for his keen mind, his easy smile and his lovely manners. I enjoyed teaching both of you. Sharon Foster, Fort Worth, Texas

Debbie,

I heard about your son this evening at the gym. There are no adequate words. My heart hurts as I know yours and your family's are breaking. What a fantastic light in the world your son was - just like his mother.

I love you and I am sorry. You have helped so many others - how can we begin to help you?

I only met this precious soul once, the night he saved my life. He and his friend Michael Karol saw fire coming from my home while leaving their friends home across the street. They banged on my windows & rang my doorbell until I was aroused from sleep in my upstairs bedroom. They were my heroes. These are the kind of people you look up to and want for your friends. Such a loss to so many I'm sure. I frankly will never forget him, I feel your loss, Anita

John,

We just heard the devasting news. We are so sorry to hear of your tremendous loss. The loss of a child is without doubt the worse one can experience. Please know that you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. May God Bless you and be with you all at this most difficult of times.

Dear John, Debbie, and Marka,

I was so saddened to hear about Quatro's sudden passing. Though it's been many years since we've been in touch, I send you my sincerest sympathy and wish you strength and peace as you work through this very difficult time.

Fondly, Kate Kelly

John,we send our deepest condolences.We will keep you and your family in our thoughts.

John was confirmation of all the good things in life. His smile and laughter will live in our hearts forever. Our deepest sympathy goes out to you John, Debby, and Marka. We love you.

Dan, Maile, and Natalie Jones

I am so deeply sorry for your loss. The fact that when I think of John, his easy smile, his chuckle and his flow-blown laughter come first to mind is a testament to his sparkling personality. He was a joy to be around and brightened any room. There is nothing I can offer to make any of this easier except that I, and I'm sure everyone John touched in Texas and the Northeast, will always think of him with a smile and even laughter - an inevitable result of his contagious good humor and joy. That part of him carries on with those who knew and love him.

My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Love,

Lauren

I am incredibly saddened to hear of Quatro's passing. He was a great friend and someone who I always admired for his passion for life. I can tell you I will always remember the smile and laugh that he always had. Thinking of all of you.

Dear Debbie, I am so sorry to hear this news. He sounds like he was such a great guy. Sounds a lot like his MOM. He looks like you, as you probably know. I want you to know that you are in my prayers. God bless you Debbie and your family.

My mother remembers Quatro as a thirteen year old when he came to my son's third birthday party at RCC. She expected him to be bored but remembers to this day what a happy-go-lucky, fun loving kid he was. That was your Quatro. God'.s angels are rejoicing.

We are heartbroken to learn of the loss of your dear son, Quatro. Although it has been many years, I have fond memories of times together on the Cape and in Medfield with Marka, Quatro, and our boys. I wish I had some magic words, but nothing seems right at times like this. Please know that we are thinking of you and keeping you in our hearts. With love, Beth, Max, Will and Ben

I am deeply saddened by the news of Quatro's passing. I will never forget Quatro's smile, playful spirit, and artistic talents as a seventh grader in my art class at Fort Worth Country Day. Some students are unforgettable; and Quatro was one of those students for all the right reasons. My prayers are with the family, friends, and all who were touched by his life.

Debbie,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I wish I had some magical words to take away your pain but words fail me at this time. Know that I am thinking of you and pray for you and your family. Peace be with you.

Dear John, Deb, and Marka,

Words can't express my sorrow at learning of Quatro's sudden passing. Though it has been many years, I still remember him as if it were yesterday. His warm and engaging smile, joy for life and sport, and simple kindness enriched my life and those around him. He made such a positive impact on the world in such a short time; we should all be so lucky with the whole of our lives. He will be missed and remembered. The thoughts and prayers of the Smiley family are with you all.

I'm so sorry to hear of John's passing. Remember his smile and him telling me of his love of sailing--think it was 1st period, 9th grade biology class.

I know that Quatro was a speacial person in my neice and nephew's life, that they really looked up to him, and enjoyed seeing him at the Wianno Yacht Club. I am sure that He and Big Ted are racing Wianno's in heaven.

So very sorry about your loss.

Mr. Mrs. Kiley, Marka & Alison: My heart goes out to everyone with the loss of Quatro. Feel proud of the man he was becoming. Feel happiness and comfort in knowing that he was so loved. Quatro will always remain alive in our hearts. He was so funny! He was a joy when he visited the house on the Cape. I will say a prayer each day for you for the sadness you're sharing. He is truly a light and a gift and a very special son. My sons Cyrus and Caleb will live their lives holding a piece of Quatro with them forever.

I keep seeing Quatro as a young boy skipping off the bus, cocking his head and flashing us his bright smile! He and Mac met up at a race and Quatro proudly told him you were in town and watching him sail. Hold your memories close, as will we. I am so sorry for your loss. You are in our thoughts.
Love,
