Claire was a special treasure to The Higgins Family - from her homemade food delights to her Bday remembrances with a Lotto ticket, Claire never wavered in making us all feel special. With Joe’s endless photos and Claire’s recall of minutia of the ‘old’ days, my mom and dad cherished their ND outings and dinners at Tom’s Steak House. Equally unwavering was her loyalty and her deep faith. May God Bless Claire and The Archibald Family!

The name Claire has French origins and means “bright” or “clear”.
Claire was a very special lady. She often shared how blessed we are to be part of this loving family. She will be missed.
