I will miss Claire very much! We have been friends since 4th Grade at Elm Hill School. When Bill and I lived in Chicago in the late 80's, we spent great times with Claire and George. Then when we moved to FL they had a winter home in Naples, and we were able to enjoy each other's company there. She never changed; was always the same, kind, even, genuine person you could ever ask to meet.
Thinking of you, Claire.

.We were friends as children. We both lived on the Chester Rd. As teens we were involved in the Christian group called "Teenagers" meeting every Saturday night. Our group had a basketball team of girls that we both played on. I will miss my long time friend.

So sad. We were such good friends. Claire was my maid of honor when Glen and I got married. Lots of good memories. Sue
