Born on February 11, 1950, in California to parents Arless & John Ellena, Claude lived a life full of passion and dedication.
Claude was well known for his generous spirit and commitment to his family. His love (and talent) for the game of golf was matched only by his enthusiasm for watching football and other sports. He also enjoyed listening to the classic tunes of the Beach Boys and spending time with his Red Hill Country Club community.
A memorial service will be held at Bellevue Memorial Park, located at 1240 W G St, Ontario, CA 91762, on December 12, 2025, from 11:30 am to 12:30 pm.
Claude's legacy is one of warmth and kindness. He will be fondly remembered and deeply missed by all who knew him.
