Mark, Annette and family - May God bless you with comfort and hope as you grieve your dear Mom/Grandmother, such a grace-ful woman. She lived so fully her faith in her vocations, her missions, her quiet generosities. She will long inspire.

Though I may be a stranger to Claire and her family, let me express my sincere appreciation for a woman who lived life fully. I agree this obituary is so well written as a tribute to wonderful woman who obviously left an impressionable footprint for the rest of us to follow. From the unselfish birthing of twelve children and then raising amazing children with so much talent , losing her husband so early and navigating life with so much adversity, shows the rest of us her strength that could only have come from the relationship she had with the Lord. Claire´s talent is so impressive and more importantly how she used those talents. God has to be impressed. In her honor, we can, and I know I will, cherish her story and use it as an inspiration to fulfill our purpose in this life. She truly gave back so much and we should remember to do the same for the benefit of so many. May this blessed soul Claire be at peace and rest eternally in the arms of her Savior.

We are saddened to learn of Claire's passing, and plan to say the Rosary for her and her family. Her son, Mark, was a year ahead of me at Notre Dame High School, and was always helpful to me...a really good guy. Claire's obituary is beautifully written, a tribute to a real Renaissance woman. We were struck by her devotion to the Blessed Mother and am sure Our Lady came to welcome her into eternal joy. May Our Lady of Beauraing (Belgium, 1931), the Virgin with the golden heart, watch over Claire and comfort all who love her. Our love and prayers go with you!
