On November 4, 2025, Claire B. Lacroix passed away at the age of 94 comforted by the presence of her loving family.

Claire was born in Blackstone MA., and is predeceased by her loving husband of 61 years, Eugene L. Lacroix, parents Jules and Bertha (Caron) Beaucage, son Steve Lacroix, and sisters Helen Gagnon, and Denise Perotta.

A devoted and nurturing mother to Gail Lacroix, Carol Afonso (Sidney Afonso) Donna Rousseau (Edward Rousseau), and Donald Lacroix (Karen O'Brien). She was a loving Memere of 12 Grandchildren, and 10 Great Grandchildren who will always remember her "goodie bags". Claire will be dearly missed by her sisters Margaret Annalaro and Diane Harihar as well as numerous nieces, nephews, and friends.

Claire spent the majority of her life in Lawrence, MA., where she devoted herself to raising her family. She spent 20 years as a Tax Examiner working at the Internal Revenue Service in North Andover, MA. In 2016 at the age of 85, Claire relocated to Naples, Florida where she purchased a condo that she fondly called her "Palace". In Naples Claire embraced a new chapter in life making new friends, doing daily water aerobics, attending social gatherings and sharing stories of her latest family adventures.

While Claire has left us here on earth, we find comfort in knowing that she has made it to her Heavenly home with Christ and the family and friends who went before her. Her memory, legacy, and loving spirit will forever remain in our hearts.
