Very well. 
Please let me add my condolences along with the rest of the forum members. I didn't know Dave, being new on the C3 forum, but he is certainly respected, and missed.
Feel free to PM me if you'd like, in case I miss this thread.
You have my very best wishes.

First off sorry about your loss.
Now, If it were me I would take a floor jack with a 2x4 across the top and to the cross member in the rear and jack it up a bit to remove the rear blocks and then lower it very slowly.
As for the front I would do the same way, But I would have a 2 inch block to lower it onto so you can get the jack out.
Hope that helps.

I'd have an expert tire guy come out and "Make sure they use Jacking Pucks and a sturdy floor jack and safely lower the car, maybe not all in one shot ( it looks kinda high up) but lower six inches at a time and once it's close to the ground lower it all the way down. I recommend this so as not to twist anything. Good luck and I'm sorry for your loss !
