Claudia Marie Medvik, age 65 of Clinton Township, died October 31, 2018 at Beaumont Hospital, Grosse Pointe Campus. She was born November 22, 1952 in Detroit, Michigan to the late Stephen Paul and the late Aurelia Virginia (nee: Biecker) Medvik. Claudia was raised in Warren and graduated from St. Clement High School in 1971. From there, Claudia continued her education at Macomb Community College where she studied photography as well as other various computer related subjects such as Computer Aided Design (CAD) and graphic design. Out of college, Claudia was hired to work for General Dynamics as a graphic designer where she created the drivers manual for Abrams Tanks. Leaving a great legacy at General Dynamics, Claudia thought it was time for a change and took a position at BAE Systems. Claudia's final stop on her career path was as a graphic designer at Stewart Industries where she worked until she began her courageous battle with Cancer. Although Claudia was often working, she enjoyed spending time with family and friends in her free time. When she wasn't with family, Claudia enjoyed taking a little time to herself. Claudia was well-known for her amazing hand-pieced and hand-sewn quilts. When she wasn't creating a quilting masterpiece, you could find her in the garden. When Claudia spent time outside, her animals would enjoy the fresh air with her as well. She also loved to cook! Claudia always enjoyed preparing meals and never had a favorite because she loved them all. Her most famous dish was the "Green Goo" which was a green jello dessert that her entire family relished and adored.Claudia held a special place in her heart for animals which is why she was a fantastic 'dog mom' to her fur babies, Oreo and Erin. Not only did Claudia love dogs, but she also loved her cat Bobo,… and now, will be greeted in Heaven by her Angel Cat, Chloe. Claudia was the beloved sister of Stephen (Mariann) Medvik and Betsy (Rob) Murphy. She was the dear aunt of Michael (Alexis) Medvik, Marie Medvik and Destiny Estes. Claudia was the loving great-aunt to Noah, Elijah and Caleb Medvik. Visitation for Claudia will be held on Monday, November 5th from 3-9 pm, with a 6 pm rosary service, at D.S.
