Our prayers and thoughts are with all of you at this time. Claudia was a special sister-in-law and I will miss sharing her recipes!

She was a helpmate, friend and partner to Rick, a friend, as well as a wonderful mother, to the girls, and loved being a new grandma, cherishing the moments and challenges it brought her. She loved taking care of all her family...that's a given.

I know she is healed now and sitting at the knee of Jesus and is reunited with all her loved ones there.
