A devoted wife to the late Michael Callis, Claudia was the heart of her family - a loving mother to Christopher Callis and Jessica, and a proud Mimi to her four cherished grandchildren. Her gentle spirit, caring nature, and steadfast support touched all who knew her.
Claudia's Christian faith was a guiding light throughout her life, reflected in the way she treated others with compassion and grace. She found her greatest joy in her family, celebrating life's milestones and creating memories that will be treasured for generations.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Bob and Joan Armstrong, and her beloved husband, Michael Callis. She is survived by her children, Christopher (Laura) Callis and Jessica (Jason) Bratcher, and her four grandchildren, who were the pride of her life.
