My sympathy to Claudia's family. She and her sister Karen were childhood neighbors of mine when we lived on Spring Garden Ave, Pgh., Pa. May she rest in Jesus' arms. Eleanor Pertler Deutsch 412-231-6366

Our very sincere sympathy to all of you. Your Mom and your Grandma will be missed, we all know that.. We knew your Mom and Dad since 1957. Have had many good times with them. Will miss her crazy Christmas cards, always so enjoyable. She must've been thinking about what to do as soon as Christmas was over for the following year. Tried to visit with her every time we returned to the area each year. Claudia came to our 50th Anniversary that my brother had for us. Either went out to dinner or to the house when we visited. Always enjoyed being with her. And, she was a bridesmaid at our wedding. So many memories that we will always have. You will all be in our prayers.

To Michelle, Mike and Mark,
Being your Mom's friend and neighbor for the past eleven years has been the best! Claudia loved you and her grandchilden with all of her heart. Nixon Road will never be the same without her. She was the life of the Road - the go to person:) We will always remember her calling out "Hey there, what's up"? - bringing life to an otherwise uneventful day! I am so, so very sad she had to leave us but know that she is with the Lord and as she would say, finally free. We loved your Mom and will never forget her. Please know we are here for you. With Much Love,
Patty & Bob

Michelle, Mike and Mark:
Your mom was like a sister to me all my life. I can't remember a time when she was not there. We will all miss her wit and humor but most of all her gift of gab. She would want us to celebrate her life and that's what we will do in the days to come.
Love you guys
