I was Claire's friend and neighbor when we were young girls. We stayed in touch until she married and went off to Chicago. For years I tried to find her but never could. Finally, the other night, I found her obituary.
I am so sorry for your loss. Claire was quite bright and no one was surprised when she wanted to be a doctor. We had such good times in her backyard in Bayonne sitting on the swing and smelling the "snowball" bushes that her grandmother planted in the yard, roses too! Claire and I had many conversations and still "hung out" when she went to Holy Family.
She was always a kind person and from the looks of what I have just read, she remained that way throughout her life.
Again, please accept my sincere condolences on the loss of your wife and mother. She is in my prayers.
