Dear Clancey Family,
I was shocked and saddened to hear of Chris's passing. I remember his spunky personality when I taught him in my art class at Lackawanna Trail. I was truly fond of Chris and appreciated his sense of humor. He could always make me laugh. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time.

Adora, Pat, Jackie and all of Chris' family,
My heart was filled with sadness when Mike told me about Chris. I remember his early years and the many visits that we had with him when we went to visit Pop Reese and Gram. The pictures we have of Kristin and Chris together, smiling and having fun with their grandparents, will be forever etched in my heart and my mind. Although I did not see Chris much as a young adult, I was thrilled to see him 4 years ago when he came to Kristin's graduation with Gram. There is comfort to know that Chris is now under the wings of Pop Reese. My prayers and thoughts are with you during this time of deep sorrow,
