Claire lived in Flint, Michigan after moving back from Pacific Grove California in 2021. She enjoyed her new Michigan residency at Sylvester Manor in downtown Flint, with a wonderful community of loving Sylvester friends.
Before moving back to her birth state of Michigan, Claire lived in Pacific Grove, California enjoying all the blessings of the Pacific Grove-Monterey Bay area. She worked as a Nurse for the Monterey V.A. Clinic, a state-of-the-art model for Veteran Care. She was loved by co-workers and patients alike for her fierce diligence and excellent nursing care.
Claire leaves behind, devoted friends and relatives that cherish their times with her in good humor and love. To know Claire was to laugh with Claire. There are plenty of stories to bring tears of laugher.
After retiring and moving back to Michigan, Claire reunited with her XAE college sorority sisters. Volunteering to share good deeds in the community became her passion.
