Claude Martin Grimes

Nicholas Schell got his very first haircut, at age 2. His dad (Jack Schell) said that have to be created by no less than the great Claude Grimes (1972)!

When I was a little girl living on Shea Road in Dallas, Texas, the Grimes moved into a house just down the street. We quickly became acquainted. I can remember that Claude took my two brothers and I to the lake and we got to ride in his boat. At the time he had two boys I believe their names were James Ray and Lonnie. I´m so sorry to hear of his passing. May his soul rest eternally in peace. My prayers to those he left behind who love him.

Claude, has been my barber for more years than I can remember. His easy going manner and dry humor were a respite on a busy day. Weather I got the "Grooms cut, the board room cut or the vacation cut", he always made me look better than I deserved. You will be missed my friend.

I knew Claud for thirty-five years and enjoyed every one of them. Whether the talk was of motorcycles, masters swimming, yoga, massage or various Zen states, Claude always had an informed opinion or word of advice. I'll miss his calm presence and friendship.

Claude was my first yoga teacher at Ranjana's yoga studio. I saw a large man pull into the parking lot on a motorcycle. He was quite a presence, looking a bit overwhelming - I didn't know he was the yoga teacher. After a few minutes, I got over my perception of what a yoga teacher might look like, and realized he was a presence and teacher in so many ways. It's been a long time since I had a class with him, but his lessons never left me. With gratitude and love, Vicki
