Dear Salva Family: I read of your loss, and would like to offer my condolences. Recently, I lost a member of my family unexpectedly, and I understand the grief and sorrow that you and your family are feeling at this time.Although words cannot fill the emptiness of your loss, I would like to share with you the promise stated at John 5:28,29. ‘ All those in the memorial tombs will hear his (JESUS) voice, and come out to a resurrection of life…’ May I assure you, I am not trying to give or change your religion. The pain of loss is felt, regardless of religion. May you be strengthened and comforted by friends and family through this VERY DIFFICULT time.

I taught Chris at Aquinas in Introduction to Theatre. He hung around my office after that for the 4 years he was there and quite often helped to build sets. Quiet voice, calm personality and always a smile. I remember him fondly. He was a lovely young man. God be with you at this time and may Chris smile down on all of us.
I’m so sorry to hear of your loss. Chris was a wonderful young man filled with so much promise. It was a pleasure to have been his teacher. He will not be forgotten by Aquinas. God bless.
It has been a great pleasure to know you… I will always remember calling you favorite and you saying hey Phi we weren’t close but you were always nice RIP

Sandy, Kevin, Grace, Jim, Sally, Mike, and to all CJ’s family and friends - Feeling a wave of grief on 7/24 and wishing somehow I could take that cross from your shoulders if only for a moment. I know that the world has been profoundly changed for the better by CJs life – While it is darker here, for a time, heaven has been made much brighter.
