GARDNER, CHRISTY CAROLINE March 5, 1962 to February 2, 2013
Chris was taken from us suddenly and without warning and our hearts ache. Beloved mother of Max, daughter of Hugh and Sally Caldwell of Tucson and sister of Hugh, Chris touched many, many lives. Words fail and are insufficient to express the grief, pain and loss we all feel as the world has lost a little ray of sunshine. Chris' family truly thanks everyone who has reached out to them over the past few days. Your strength, love and support has helped more than you will ever know. For all of those who have asked if there is anything you could do for us, there is - Max has asked, that when you get a chance, hug your mom, dad, and every person you love. Let them know how much you care about them and how important they are to you, for life is precious and fragile and we never know if that might be the last time they hear those words from us (San Diego Tribune).

Chris and I were friends for over 40 years. The last time I spoke with her was the day she passed. We shared alot over the years: firsts, fun, adventure, mischief, moves, family, laughs, cries, more laughs, and lots of sushi. All the blessings that come with long lasting friendship. What moves through me now is a quiet sadness. A wish for one more day, one more phone conversation, one more visit, one more laugh. We may never understand why she left this earth so soon, or why she left before we were ready to say goodbye. But little by little we will remember not just that she died, but that she lived! And that her life gave us memories too beautiful to forget. I am deeply saddened by her untimely death and my heart goes out to you Max, Hugh, Sally, Hughie and your family, and Sam. I extend my condolences and I am there for you all, any time you want or need. All my Love, Judy (Burkett) Brevaire

Christy Caldwell was the first girl I ever kissed, in the 5th grade, at Harelson Elementry school, in the "spools" on the playground... RIP Christy... RIP.

Oh Chris, I know I'm so late in writing on your behalf. Your death has been on my mind, but couldn't go there until now. My memories include watching you, Shannon, and Katie as the three musketeers, always active and into everything, w/me so much wanting to be the fourth. I'd never known sports and watched you all in awe. Thought the world of Chris. I loved that era.
Judy, I'd love to be in touch. Remember you fondly and would love to know more about you and Chris(ty). And Bobby, did you kiss her in the big concrete tube? Shannon, Katie - you guys out there? I fit so much better in Tucson than in Delaware where we moved to in '75. Miss you all and would love contact, my best, Jenny
