Born on April 6, 1927, in Fresno, CA, she was the eleventh of 12 children born to Amasa and Zona Netzley. Her life was filled with family events and celebrations. Claudine loved to garden and took much pride in her beautiful roses. Her home was always opened to family and strangers alike. She was a homemaker and caretaker of all with whom she came in contact.
Claudine worked at J.C. Penney Co., when it was on the Fulton Mall, for 25 years where she served as the "Hi- Deb" coordinator, teaching high school girls how to dress, accessorize, model and the fine art of etiquette. She was a second mother to many of these girls and took pride in their growth and development as refined young women.
The second love of mom's life was her dog Molly, who was a faithful and constant companion bringing immeasurable joy to her life.
Vince and Claudine attended Peoples Church from 1960, to the present and served on the building committee and as sanctuary greeters.
She will be dearly missed, never forgotten, always loved and live in our hearts forever!
Claudine is survived by her husband, Vince Novak; her son, RW "Kris" Novak; her daughter, Charlotte Novak-Brown; four grandchildren; and 13 great-grandchildren.
A Memorial Service will be held at Peoples Church, G.L. Johnson Chapel, on Friday, January 15, 2016, at 11:00 a.m.
