A true legend. There was never a goal he couldn't meet to help you wether you were his client, or more importantly, his friend. My life was truly enriched by time spent with Claude.

Claude, an extraordinary soul you were. You weren´t just a friend but a spark, the kind that ignited curiosity with all of your life´s adventures. For 96 remarkable years, he lived life with courage, character, and a winning hand. A poker champion with unmatched skill and a rodeo legend who understood grit and heart, he embodied the spirit of the West and the thrill of the game. Above all, he was a loyal friend, a storyteller, and a presence that made every room richer. His legacy lives on in...

Bugs(Claude)was a very happy and loving person, especially to his family. R.I.P.

Claude was always so good to my then husband and me during the 70´s-80´s when he started with the Hilton International. When Steve Wynne bought the Golden Nugget and had parties all over the US,including Houston, he invited us....and that´s where he introduced me to Frank Sinatra.....have to say one of highlights of my life. RIP Claude and so happy to hear you lived such a long life. I hope the later ones were good ones. Thank you for adding some good ones to mine.
