Those of us who spent three years with Chris at Bellevue will always remember her for her warmth, strength of character, and the way she cared for her friends and family. I know there's a special place for beautiful souls like hers.

We are so sad to learn of Chris's passing. She made our visits to the office for treatment as if we were stopping by home for coffee and a chat. It can never be the same but as our faith reminds us she is safe in the arms of our Lord. Our prayers are with you at this most difficult time. We will cherish her memory.

There are no words, but our deepest sympathies to all your families.

(Larry Menegus: Isabella sends you hugs.)

Chris had such a wonderful heart! She will be missed.

You are in our thoughts & prayers,

Dottie, Darrin, Natalia & Isabella Daniello

I was one of the 7th floor student nurses who shared 3 years with Chris. She had a wonderful outlook that continued throughout her life. We will all miss her at our NYC gathering. To her family I send my heartfelt sympathy. She loved you all.

Sadly,

There are no words that I can say to comfort you in this time. But I know I am a much better person for knowing grammie and will miss her very much. She always had a smile (and chocolate!!) and was always there to lend a hand. My fathers chemo treatments will never be the same!! Always remember I am here for you!!

All my Love,

Vicki, John, John & Anthony

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family during this period of loss and grief.

I was lucky to be sitting across from Chris on 9/20 at Victor's. We had a great conversation over dinner. She so enjoyed those reunions. Chris had a heart of gold. May her family find consolation in the belief that her love will always be with them.

As a long time patient of Dr. Niranjan, Chris was always the positive force; concerned for my well-being, compassionate and caring. We could always count on her. She truly made a difference.

Our deepest sympathy to her family.

My memories of Chris during our student days at Bellevue and at subsequent reunions are of a strong, smart and compassionate woman. My deepest sympathy to Christine, Larry and Kathy for your loss.

To Chris and all the family,

Linda and I are so very sorry for your loss. From the few times we visited with her, I know she was a wonderful mother and grandmother. I can only imagine how much she will be missed. We will keep you in our prayers.

I have known Chris for a few years now. She has been giving my treatments at Dr. Niranjan's office. She has been so cheerful, always a kind word and conversations about family and crocheting, which we both enjoy. She has helped me feel happy through a difficult time. I will miss her, but will keep her kindness with me, and hope all of your good memories of Chris will bring you solace and smiles.

Most sincerely,

Maryann Citro

All of you children (really adults now) are in my thoughts and prayers. Remember the good times and tell your kids about all of those times. This way Chris will be loved and remembered for the caring person she was. She & Bunny helped me cram that 1st year at Bellevue which is what got me through it. I owe her a lot more than I gave her.Now, she can be at peace and with your dad which I hope will be some solace for each of you in the days ahead. God Bless and keep each of you safe and happy.

My deepest sympathies and prayers go out to the entire Finnegan family. Although I did not know Chris personally, I had the opportunity to meet her through stories that Cait would tell about her and Larry. God Bless you all during this difficult time and know that I am praying for you.

What we once held dear to us in life, will be ours forever in memory.

With the deepest of sympathy,

Mike and Diane Veres
