I am so sorry to read about Clare's death. I knew that she was in a hospice from a mutual good friend, Sally Hickey. The world won't be the same without Clare, such a gentle person. Madeleine babysat for my children a couple of times when the Hickeys weren't available. My sympathy goes out to all the Swietlik children, having lost each of their parents too soon.

Clare was in my docent class at the Milwaukee Art Museum and I enjoyed studying and working with her very much. She was funny, witty and kind and a true treasure. My sympathies to her family.
