Russ: We were very sad to learn of Claudia's passing. I'm glad we had the opportunity to spend some time with you and her at our 50th year
class reunion. We enjoyed her cheerful personality and was a delight in our group that weekend. Thank you very much for informing us of her passing. God Bless!!! Ray and Nancy Lichtenwalter (Fort Worth, TX)

Claudia was a very special lady in my life...she was a mother to my daughter Lesley, and I felt like she was a sister to me....We both shared our Granddaughter Emily with a trip to the American Girl Store...we laughed and hugged and I will never forget her. I still have her phone number in my cell phone because I can't believe she won't be there to make me laugh and help me make sense of things that really didn't matter. God has chosen the perfect Angel to watch over all of us her family and friends. I hope that all that loved her never forget the most Beautiful, kind, and gentle soul that shared our lives....and I look forward to seeing her one day when God calls me home. God Bless all of you for loving such a wonderful Wife, Mother, Step-Mother, Grandma, Sister, and Friend....Love Sally Rempis

Russ and family...I am so very sorry to hear of Claudias passing. Will miss her coming in to see me and telling me all that was going on with the family and Grandchildren. Her eyes just sparkled when she spoke of You and the Family. Claudia was more than a client, She was a friend. I will miss her hugs and laughter. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Claudia, you were my best friend, the best mother-in-law, and best of everything to me and our families life. I love you so so much. You have always been there for me and hugged me tight everytime I needed a friend, I will never ever forget how much love you have given to all of us. You have always been there for me. We love you so much and we will miss you, but will never ever forget all the wonderful times we spent together. I promise we will look after Jess, Logan and the baby and share stories of how much you loved them, and proud of everything they are, and whom they will be. You are what made us all a family, and we will forever cherish that! I love you.
