Claire Elizabeth Donaldson

I´m an Augie college grad 1999, Claire was in theater with me. Robin, Amy, Vanessa and I all got together for a small reunion in March 2025 and we are sharing stories of Claire and missing her this weekend. We love you Claire!

As I´m sitting at my kitchen table this morning, Jesus brought you, Sandy and Karen, to mind. My heart was immediately breaking for you as I´m sure the loss of Claire has not become any easier to bear. For that, I am so sorry. May the Holy Spirit of God bring His supernatural, loving comfort to you today. May He give you exactly what you need in order to breathe deeply and immerse yourselves in the rivers of His healing love. He sees you. His heart breaks for you and desires to give you His...

I am very sorry about your untimely loss. Claire’s smile, sense of humor, and big heart will be missed and always remembered. Your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Both Claire and I were in the summer musical production of “You’re A Good Man Charlie Brown” at ESD a few years back. (She was Lucy and I was Charlie Brown.) She truly was a very nice, talented, energetic and caring person. During the show I flubbed my lines singing the "baseball song," and afterwards she comforted and joked with me about one of her own embarrassing experiences: singing during chapel, getting nervous and forgetting the words, and having to go back mid-song and start over. I...

The Donaldsons,
I am so sorry about your loss. I knew Claire not only as my teacher but as my coach. I will always remember: her skit she did for us"Eminimicus", her favorite movie day with her favorite pink princess hat, "Princess Bride Day" her cheers in the halls so we wouldn't be late for class, "Lets Go, Lets Go, L-E-T-S-G-O." Her fun games to help us learn Latin better. She also loved Pink. My prayers and thoughts go out to you and to her. Much Love.

Dear Mr. & Mrs. Donaldson and John,

I send you my love during this time of grief and sadness for Claire's passing. I was blessed to have shared three years in high school with her. Her bright smile and energy is something that lives still inside of me and inside all those who she touched. May you find strength in the love that you share as a family and in all the seeds of love that Claire planted on this earth. My prayers and thoughts are with you.

Love,
...
