Our condolences to the family. Linda Rainville ((nee Ardagh) and husband Claude Rainville
So sorry to hear of Claire’s passing. I had some great visits with him at the apartment when I was walking home in the mornings with the dog. He had an awesome memory and could tell stories for hours. He’ll be happy he’s back with your mom and I’m sure they will all be drinking coffee at grandmas table! Another angel to watch over you all. He will be missed by many.
We extend our condolences to the family’s of Claire, so Sorry to hear.
We go back many years ago when
we lived in Souris.
Hug’s

Kim, Heather, Tammy and families. We are so sorry to hear of your Dad’s passing. I remember well running into your parents at the mall in Brandon having coffee. They were always both smiling with a big hello! Keeping you all in our thoughts as you navigate the difficult days ahead. May your memories and friends bring you comfort.
My deepest sympathies to Kim Heather and Tammy and their families
We had many great times when they lived in Brandon area and had a wonderful visit when Rick and I visited him in Killarney
This world has lost a kind and gentle man

Kim, Heather, Tammy and families, we are so sorry to hear of Claire’s passing. He was a wonderful father, husband, and man. This world will miss his stories and incredible personality. We always looked forward to visits with him. Time and distance has meant that those visits were very few in later years but memories of earlier times with him and Barb are still cherished and in our hearts.
