I extend very sincere sympathy to all his family.
I used to bring communion to Chris in my time as priest for Monasteraden and was planning to visit Chris over the last while.
I am truly sorry I couldn’t get the time to do it.
He was a lovely man who bore his infirmity very well and with good humour.
Sorry I won’t be able to attend the funeral ceremonies but will see you his family later on.
May his gentle soul rest in peace

My sincere condolences to Kathleen, Martina, Caroline, Deirdre, Helen, Joan, Gerard and the whole family on the passing of Chris.

Over the years we came over to Ireland, from my childhood spending time at the house and never wanting to leave, to recent times myself and my father always made sure we came round to visit, we always received a warm and lovely welcome with you always delighted to see us.

I enjoyed listening to my father and Chris chat about anything and everything when we visited, I could have sat listening to them for hours, especially when they talked about the local history of the area.

Chris will be deeply missed by you all and everyone who knew him.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all and may Chris rest in peace.
