My dad, Claude, was truly one of the nicest people I knew. He always thought of others first and was always willing to give any help. Claude had a funny sense of humor. He loved to sing and be silly and he loved to talk. We will miss him so much and I know I’ll see him again in heaven. Bye for now , Dad, I love you.

Remember you passing by my parents house on the 2200 block of W. Bridge St. with the postal jeep I was sitting on the front porch with my dog in 1968 or 1969 maybe later I can’t remember but you said “Hi” or “how you doing” will never forget that you might say that you were the inspiration for my postal career and “I Thank You my Friend”
Blessings to you, Dorothy, and to all of you in Claude’s family. Be assured he will be remembered fondly as a kind, jovial and faithful man. Actually, I think of him often as I now have the same knee pain that plagued him before his surgery. But I think more about his faithful attendance at the Home Care Group meetings we had at our house and how he tenderly shepherded a man in our church who was showing early signs of Alzheimer’s. Surely our Father greeted him with “Well done, good and faithful servant.”
