I first had the pleasure of meeting Claire in FB Citizens Police Academy and then we went on to go thru the FB Citizens Fire Academy together as well. Claire was such an awesome woman and so fun to be around. We would always look forward to Thursday nights at the Academy with her – she kept us in stitches! Claire will be deeply missed, but I know the heavens will be full of laughter with her there! My prayers are with her family during this time.
I did not know Claire personally, but did get to know what a wonderful spirit she had and how wonderful a friend she was to my daughter (Claire's special helper) – Heather. She will be GREATLY missed by Heather. May God give you the "peace beyond all understanding" during this difficult time of grief for Claire. Sincerely, Carol Cooper
My first memory of Claire was the many years that she received the coveted Centurion award for sales in real estate through the Century 21 system.Then remember when she came home from a Century 21 International Convention to find out her husband was killed in a car wreck. Then many years later after healing she found Phil and married him in Las Vegas when we all went to a Century 21 International Convention. I had the privilege along with a couple others from our office to attend that wedding. Claire was radiant and Phil all smiles! Claire told me many times that she bled black and goal and loved Century 21 and loved being a Realtor and her clients loved her so. I also remember how happy & proud she was of her children % grandchildren, Dorthy, best friend & her beloved Phil! Remember seeing pictures of the twins and remember when they were born. Remember she loved to drive cadillacs. Remember she was an intense, caring person whom will be missed! Thanks for the memories Claire!! If I find pictures will submit.
Claire had more energy and spunk than anyone I know. It was such a pleasure to know her and call her a friend. A treasure.
Our City has lost a great citizen. Claire was a true friend to the Police Department and the City of Farmers Branch. She wasn't the type to sit back and wait for others to act; all you had to do to motivate her is tell her something couldn't be done. I will miss Claire very much.
We are so sorry. We are here for you whatever and whenever You need us. We love you all very much.
"I will turn their mourning into joy and will comfort them and make them rejoice from their sorrow." Jer. 31:13 May God bless and keep you in your time of need.
I love you Claire. As one Arian to antoher, we usually seemed to be of the same mind on most things. Lots of energy and always caring with an open heart. This I will miss. You will always be cherished for being there. My life is better from you being in it. I will never forget you.
Claire and I were immediate friends because we thought so much alike and vowed to always be honest with each other and not mince words! Claire mince words?!! Ha! Every moment we had was special; there is not one I can single out to be more special. I did make a list of promises to her in the event of her death and I so intend to keep everyone of them that I can humanly do. She told me how much she trusted me to keep her confidences and fulfill those promises; so watch out, if you see me doing something a little weird consider that I may just be doing it for Claire. I owe her a lot; she jerked a knot in my tail and got me back into life after years of suffering with illness and pain… I'll love you forever Claire… until we meet again (none too soon tho).
Claire was an exceptional person who will be greatly missed by her family, friends, and neighbors as well as by the city of Farmers Branch as a whole. Her vision and drive has caused the neighborhood in which she lived to be one of the most crime free and safest neighborhoods in the city. She would ask for no better legacy.
