Claire brought light, love, and joy throughout her life to everyone she met and in every place she went. A spirit of vitality dwelling in a fragile body, Claire’s special heart and soul touched everyone she met. Her courage, effervescent joy, and her tight embrace of all of life will be cherished by her family and friends. Her love of Peppa Pig, art, cake pops, ballet, rainbows, cheeseburgers, bacon, music, and her ability to become best friends within moments of meeting anyone, was contagious and awe-inspiring. Her beautiful body held an even more beautiful spirit. She is, and will always be, remembered with the deepest love by her mother, father, brother and sister, as well as all her grandparents, her uncles and aunts, her cousins, and her many, many friends.
A memorial service honoring Claire’s life will be held on Sunday, July 29th at 3:00 p.m. at Colonial Baptist Church located at 6051 Tryon Road, Cary, NC. Please use the Student Center entrance facing Holly Springs Road and follow the signs to the Chapel.
Memorial donations may be made to UNC Children’s Hospital in honor of Claire’s fight and all that stood by her during that difficult but inspiring time.
