My sympathy to all those who mourn Chris's death. Of course I was surprised to see his obituary yesterday in the paper. I remember his dad's funeral very well - in March this Spring. I am 1st cousin to his dad. No longer do I drive, so I will see you at the funeral if I can get to Holy Spirit Church. Sister Lorraine Doherty, osf

Dawn, Noah, Jill, Kelli and Family, we are so sorry for the loss of Chris. Chris always had the biggest heart and such a great sense a humor. His quick wit was one of his best attributes! We all appreciated his love and support when we lost Trace. We take some comfort knowing the two of them are now going to have great conversations about their boys, racing and Wild hockey! God Bless all of you and know you will forever have an angel watching over you. You will be surprised at some little “signs” that will express his presence.
Love Dawn, Jason, Aaron, Derrick and Lindsay Macken
