Claire Y. (Castilloux) Reddick, 80, of Lincoln, passed to eternal life Thursday, March 3rd, with her loving family by her side. Claire was the beloved wife of the late Sgt Paul F. Reddick, E.P.P.D.(Ret). Born in Pawtucket, she was the daughter of the late Leo and Doris (Duphily) Castilloux. Claire was a graduate of East (Tolman) High School and of Hubbard Business School, both of Pawtucket. After serving as a member of the United States Air Force, Claire was employed as the bookkeeper for Lorraine Mills Fabric Store in Pawtucket for many years.
She enjoyed traveling, especially to Cape Cod, Florida, and Hawaii. Claire had many hobbies including word puzzles and reading as well as playing cards and board games. She was a particularly fierce competitor of Parcheesi and Canasta. Claire's gracious and fun-loving personality will be missed by family and friends as well as numerous longtime medical and business associates-turned-friends whose hearts will forever remember her.
She is survived by her sisters, Janet Labonte of Harrisville RI, Lucille (Robert Sr) Baron of Pawtucket RI, and Dorothy Lucas of Bethany CT. She was the sister of the late John, Henry, and Gerald Castilloux, and stepmother of the late Megan Reddick. Claire is also survived by her "sister"-cousin Virginia Salois of North Attleboro, MA, and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
Claire's family expresses its profound gratitude to the medical professionals and caregivers who so lovingly cared for her throughout the years.
