Claire Marie Petosa Rhodes

The funeral was today. My first. It was probably one of the hardest things I have had to do in my life so far. I know it will only get easier from here. Taye will be missed. Atleast I got the opportunity to get to know my great-grandma--not many can do that.

Thanks to all of the supporters.
And to all of the people who were at the service.
It definatly meant alot.

Robert, JoAnn, Gina: Our deepest condolences. Our hearts,prayers and thoughts are with you.
HBPlatis and Family.

Dear Gina and Family,

You might remember me as the daytime cook at Claire's original Pantry in Shoreline.

Claire allowed and helped me back into the workforce at a time when I desperately needed it. In addition, she never faltered in her kindness to me; professionally or personally.

Claire's success in the restaurant business ought to be the model for any operator. I learned a great deal from her, and only wish I could have learned more.

Please...

Dear cousins,

Susan and I are holding you all in our hearts and in our prayers. Our deepest sympathies are with you.

Claire was very special to us and to our late mother. We have many fond memories of the three of us making surprise visits to one of the “Pantries” just to say hello. Her lovely smile and warm greetings always made us feel special, too. We will cherish our memories of her, always.

We love you,

Susan Allington &

Gina and family.
I am so sorry to hear about your loss. My heart goes out to you and your family.
God Bless

May you have God's blessings and find comfort in your family and loved ones during this time of sorrow...

My love to you, Jo Kay
