My sincere condolences to Claudette’s husband, Glenn, family and friends. She used to work here at Rockwell Automation, probably called Allen-Bradley at that time. She was such a friendly, warm person—a real a joy to be around. And who wasn’t touched by her radiating smile? Even though I haven’t seen her in years, she is very much alive in my memory. Even more importantly, she is in Jehovah’s memory soon to receive a resurrection. Death is indeed an enemy, but Jehovah promises the time will come soon when there is no death, pain or sorrow. I look forward to greeting my Sister and friend back again, as we have a lot to catch up on. Nancy Cowles (Painesville Congregation)

Dear Shirley and family of Claudette -
I was deeply saddened today when I saw Claudette's obituary in the newspaper. The first thing that came to mind were those deep dimples she had whenever she smiled. Shirley, I know you will remember me. My name is Patricia Cook and Claudette and I were classmates at East Tech and in the same graduating class. I can tell from reading the other entries in Claudette's guest book that she had not changed, and over the years she continued to be the same kind and loving person that I will always remember. May God bless you and your family.

I worked with Claudette...we would talk frequently. She was one of the few people that I would share encouraging words with. My thoughts and prayers are with you all

I work on the 4th floor of Claudette's building and am a sister. I agree with all of the above entries regarding her warm smile and personality. Claudette and I didn't get to spend much time together but when we did see one another we always exchanged hugs and at least briefly spoke. Your wife was beautiful in many ways and that only happens when you have a good heart. I will miss our brief encounters because it is always good to find another witness as you have an instant friend.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

I am a close and dear friend and co-worker of Claudette's who worked in the Biomedical Engineering Dept. at Case Western Reserve University.

Claudette was a compassionate, loving and caring individual. She had a wonderful sense of humor, style and grace. I will always cherish the many special memories of her. I will especially miss her laughter, friendship and friendly advice.

With Deepest Sympathy,

Dear Glenn,
My heart goes out to you at this sad time. My husband passed away at the age of 54, so I understand your loss. I loved Claudette . . . her beautiful smile that lit up her whole face and the goodness that shone from within her heart and soul. We shared a lot during the past year and a half and were each other's support. I've missed her terribly during the past few months, but feel honored to have known her. I pray that she now is released from her pain and is finding comfort surrounded by God's love.

I am so very sorry that I will be unable to attend services and offer my sincere condolences in person to you and Claudette's entire family; I will be in synagogue for Yom Kippur, the most holy day in the Jewish calendar.

Please tell Claudette's mother how much her daughter meant to me. When I joined the BME Department a year after Claudette did, I sent out an email to everyone introducing myself. Claudette was the only person who responded . . . she welcomed me and offered me her help. I can't tell you how good that made me feel. Since then, she has been my friend and my confidante. She was a blessing. May God grant you peace, comfort, and beautiful memories
Sincerely,
Marlene Siegal

I am so sorry to hear the news of the passing of your loved one. I am a staff member at Case where Claudette worked also. I got a chance to meet her on one ocassion and we shared a really nice and long conversation. She gave me some very helpful advice and and I found her to be such a lovely lady and a woman of great wisdom. Although our meeting was brief; I glad that I had an opportunity to meet her. My prayers are with you doing this difficult time.
