I was so sorry to hear of Claire's death. She was the weekend supervisor at the Eddy when I worked on the weekends. I use to love to talk to her about football. I know how much she loved the Patriots. I also know how much she loved her family. May God comfort you in your time of sorrow. Beth Haggerty

It seems so unreal that you are gone. I'm going through all the different emotions but they only thing that is keeping going is Ayden. I'm so happy that you got to meet my little boy and spend the last 17 months of your life with him. I'm looking forward to you watching over him and making sure we all get through this difficult time.

Kathy, Tim, Beth and Mary,
I am so sorry. I can never remember a time that your mom did not greet me with a big smile and warm hug. I hope she is sharing them with my dad, their siblings and parents right now! She will be missed. Love you Aunt Claire.

I have very fond memories of Claire when she was my supervisor at Visiting Nurses in the early 80's. I was a young nurse right out of school and she was like having a second mom. I spent 7 years there before moving on and to this date.....she was one of the best supervisors I've had. My deepest sympathy goes to her family.
