It's very hard to lose "momma" at any age.... she was a beautiful lady and a 64 year marriage is a beautiful legacy. Perry, I sorrow with you during these days of loss. God bless the Reames family with comfort and a strong faith in Jesus.
I am so sorry for your loss and truly wish we could be there. Not only was Claudine mom's best friend, she was indeed a second mom to me and my siblings.
Claudine's family, so sorry to hear of the loss of Claudine. I enjoyed knowing her in different organizations and especially working with her at Elections. She helped to make the long days shorter. My prayers to her family during this hard time.

You We’re a very special caring person .
Mick and family: She was such a precious person. It was so hard to watch her go down. We have shared so many good times together! We've laugh and cried and always stuck by each other's side. I am so glad we came to see her. I was thrilled to see she still had her sense of humor and knew everything that was going on. One of my favorite memory is when she was was still working some and she always wanted to look just right. She had bought a new camera and set it up and would try on the her outfits to see which one looked the best. She showed us 20 or 30 pictures she had taken of herself! Loved her attitude! I ready miss her! Prayers for all of her family.

To the Family,
I worked with Claudine for a few years at a local bank. She was so sweet to me. After she left the bank, we would often see each other around town. We always stopped to touch base for a few minutes. She was always her pleasant self. Even after she got sick, we would say "Hi" when we saw each other. I would ask her how she was doing and she never complained. Always told me she was fine. I know you don't really know me but I wanted to let you know that Claudine was a light in my life. You have my sympathy.
