Not sure what to say?

Clare was an exceptionally talented student in my UNO History classes and I was happy to write a recommendation for her to go to school in London. I admired her ambition very much to go beyond New Orleans

I met Claire in a cafe in New Orleans, and we chatted about carpentry, books, and our shared dreams over the course of that summer- stargazing in the park afterhours, drinking wine, playing scrabble, and laughing. She was a beautiful soul who will be truly missed by everyone who ever had the privilege of knowing her.

I had the pleasure of meeting Claire in France in 2015. She was a joy to have on the program, always looking for something new in the French surroundings. She was a great asset to the historical profession and we have lost a great talent. Rest in Peace.

I knew Claire from my daughter,Randon. She was a very sweet, special girl. My condolences to the Cook family and friends.

I had the pleasure to teach Claire at UNO and wrote a letter on her behalf to get her into King's College. She was one of the best students I taught in almost 30 years of teaching at UNO. Her passing is a great shock and the historical profession has lost a promising great talent!

I love you and I miss you, Claire. Until next time, bud.
