Her happy personality. Joy for life. She could light up a room with fabulous stories about her adventures with her family. Always showed loving kindness to everyone she met.
She could entertain friends with her fantastic Mexican dinners and cocktail parties. She was a firecracker!
Her ability to remember Lenabells tongue twister stories. Always had everyone laughing and wanting more.
Pure perfection, loyal friend with a kind spirit.
Making sure that she always had matching earrings, necklace, bracelets to color coordinate and compliment her outfit on a daily basis
Family and friends
Hugs to the family
She loved to smile and laugh
The Best mom ever
For me, her famous rice salad. I could eat them 24 hours for days.
After many years of searching for my father, she was the one who picked up my call at 2am Maine time while I was dead nervious and shaking on the other line half across the world from Bahrain. She’s my 1st family contact in Maine.
Her smile can easily brighten someone else’s day.
She got a big heart ❤️
Loving, warm and beautiful smile
Mom Claudia, we only had few memories together but I will carry them in my heart always. I love you and will always include you in my prayers🙏

Her love to her family
I love you and i will miss you.
My heart goes out to aunt Claudias children and grandchildren, her husband Ron. She will always be in your heart and mind as a beautiful soul.
She was an empath and she could read others. She made friends easily and was loved by all. I loved to hear her pop her gum inside her mouth, it irritated her sister so.
Beautiful caring woman, translucent and wise.
Aunt Claudia was a rock, a Matriarch of the blood line, she watched over all of when we in California. She kept me out of trouble, listened to my thoughts and made me feel secure. She then set out for Maine and raised 2 rightous children and was an adoring grandmother. She will be visiting all of us as Gina has said she loved Dragonflies. I know we all will think of her everytime we see one. May she fly around and lightly land on awhat peeks her interest, like an Angel she now has wings be free aunt Claudia. Love and rembrance to her family
