Private funeral services for Christine Ann Durbin, the daughter of U.S. Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL) and Loretta Durbin, will be held this Thursday in suburban Maryland outside Washington, D.C. The services are limited to family and close friends.

Chris Durbin, 40, passed away on Saturday from complications related to a congenital heart condition. She is survived by her parents, her husband Marty Johnson and son Alex; brother Paul (and wife Jamie); sister Jennifer (and husband Michael).

In lieu of flowers the Durbin family has asked that a charitable donation be made to:

Constituents wishing to express their condolences to the Durbin family can access an online condolence book at www.durbin.senate.gov. Books of condolence will also be available at the Senator’s offices in Illinois and in Washington, DC (details as to location of each book can be found at www.durbin.senate.gov). Handwritten or personal condolences may be sent to the Senator’s Springfield office at 525 S. 8th Street, Springfield, Illinois, 62703.

“Chris was a remarkable woman who was deeply committed to her family and deeply loved in return. The Durbin family is so grateful and has been touched by the outpouring of sympathy and support from those who have sent along their prayers and good wishes,” said Durbin spokesman Joe Shoemaker.
