Claire Hinnebusch

I am saddened by the loss of my Aunt Claire. She and all my Dominican Aunts and Uncles were always friendly and willing to pay attention to us as we grew up. I last saw her at my Uncle Gerard (Paul) Hinnebusch's funeral in New Orleans. My sympathies go to my Uncle John (Frederick) Hinnebusch.

I lived with Sr. Claire at St. Cecilia's in Rochester. We ministered in the parish as DRE's. To me, she was "Aunt Claire." I loved her wisdom and she was ahead of her times. She always looked great in her "thrift store clothes."

My deepest sympathy to her family and community.

I knew Sister from her ministry at St. Perpetua's and I was in the Office for Youth Ministry. She had a real love and concern for the young people of McKeesport. She may never have known all the good she accomplished in her lifetime but she has undoubtedly touched the lives of thousands. May God reward her for every life she had affected. The world will be a little darker without her.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
