NATICK – Christopher Donnelly, 73, of Falmouth (formerly of Natick and Medway) passed away suddenly on Saturday, December 26, 2020.

He was the husband of Beth (Rau) Donnelly for 54 years.

Chris was born and raised in Boston, the eldest child of the late Gerald and Catherine (Murray) Donnelly.

He also leaves behind his beloved grandchildren Max & Zach Gargurevich and Drew & Hannah Lawrence, all of Natick, his siblings Charlie & Kathy Donnelly of Natick, Cathy Hayes of Randolph, and Mark & Pattie Donnelly of Scituate, as well as many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends, including his Cape Cod Country Club family.
