Claire Compernolle

I remember Mrs. Compernolle as the delightful mother of my best friend Mary Claire. We lived at 6545 N. Ashland Avenue in Chicago and they lived a few houses down on the corner, which we little kids accessed via the alley between our backyards. My family was the Clausens, my name was different at the time, but I remember Mary Claire and her big fun family and her Mom very clearly and warmly. I'm sorry to hear of Claire's passing even though I'm just reading of it now online. I send my...

John -- I was so sorry to learn of your Mother's passing. May she rest in peace. My condolences to you and your family.

How can we ever forget Clairesy Babe.....I have so enjoyed travelling the world with her. Keeping ALL the captains at bay...what a wonderful sense of humor. Expect she and Jules will be off on another adventure and so many travel mates to go with them....

To all the family...God Bless you all....i know you will miss this great lady.....I am sooooo sorry not to have been there to say BON VOYAGE.....love, Patricia

My condolences to all the Compernolles. Your mom ( and your whole family, for that matter) is permanently embedded in the memories of my youth. Our little corner of the universe was idyllic, and that was mostly due to our parents imparting lots and lots of love in our lives. I never heard a harsh word from your mom, and I'm pretty sure I deserved plenty. Bless her heart, and all of the Compernolles.
Sincerely, Ann Fernholz Lavin

Another one of the all time great Wilmette moms is gone. Wishing the family enough prayers to help lift you up during this sad tiime.
