~*~ CJ Twomey ~*~
I 'met' (online) Hallie back in the summer of 2007 through her WONDERFUL blog,
Wonderful World of WeinersHallie's 20 year old son C.J. took his own life in April.
On May 5th on her Facebook page, Hallie posted this message:
'Three weeks ago today...three weeks.
The song was wrong. Suicide is NOT painless. Shmoops, I miss you.'
Yesterday, on Mother's Day - Hallie shared that their family, would be
participating in the American Foundation for Suicide Preventions, Boston
Out of The Darkness Walk.
Since knowing of CJ's death, I have prayed for his Mother Hallie,
his Father John, and his little brother, Connor, his fiancee, Danielle
and everyone who has been affected by his passing.
My distinct prayer for Hallie has been.... "Dear Lord, may Hallie find some
way to build a bridge over this gut wrenching pain".
THIS WALK .... OUT OF THE DARKNESS ... IS THAT BRIDGE !!!

Christopher John Twomey, known to his loved ones as C.J.
passed away unexpectedly on April 15.
He was the beloved first born son of John and Hallie Twomey arriving on July 3, 1989 in Stoneham, MA. Following his graduation from Edward Little High School in 2007, C.J. spent time proudly serving as an enlisted aircrew member in the United States Air Force, successfully earning his enlisted aircrew wings.
C. J. was known as a friend to all, a natural comedian and the life of the party. His smile brought joy to his friends and his family alike. He was charismatic, extremely charming and always willing to lend a hand to a friend in need. He loved unconditionally and made sure those people he cared about always felt special. His zest for life and his ability to see the good in all will never be forgotten.
He was and always will be the world’s greatest big brother to Connor. Their relationship was something to behold. They adored one another from day one and were the best of friends.
C. J. is survived by his loving parents, John and Hallie Twomey of Auburn, his younger brother Connor of Auburn, his grandfather Bill Keene of Haverhill, MA, his grandmother and husband, Gayle and Paul Nigro of Haverhill, MA, his grandparents Mike and Jerri Twomey of Hampton, NH, his uncle and aunt David Keene and Shelley Kobrenski and their daughter Sarah of Acton, MA, his uncle Brian Twomey of Amesbury, MA, his aunt Jennifer Twomey and her three children, Ethan, Gabby and Matias of New York City, NY, and his loving fiancé Danielle Dubois of Auburn. C.J. will also be missed by countless friends who loved him as much as he loved them.
C.J. will be forever in our hearts.

With my unending prayers and LOVE to you all
