Claire Shaiman (nee Goldfein) passed away at the age of 98 on Nov 7th of natural causes, at her home in Lake Worth, Fla. She was the beloved wife, for 56 years, of William R. Shaiman and the devoted mother of four children, Ronnie, Karen, Joyce and Marc. She adored her grandchildren Lauren, Daniel, Alan, Bryan, Ricky and Gaby and her great grandchildren Liam and Wyatt, as well as all of her children's spouses, Bruce, Minda, Hal & Bobby, Scott and Lou.
Claire raised her children in Scotch Plains NJ. She grew up in Elizabeth NJ along with her three sisters, Marsha, Sandy and Linda. As a teenager, she loved dancing to the big bands and as a wife, she enjoyed traveling the world with her husband Willy. Her home was full of pictures and memorabilia of their many trips as well as the accomplishments of their children and grandchildren. Claire remained very active throughout her life, and even at 98, she was often seen briskly walking the perimeter of her building many times a day. She was one-of-a-kind and will be greatly missed by all that knew and loved her.
