It was with great sorrow to learn of Claude's passing. We go all the way back to our high school days at St. Louis College. Later in life we were business partners in the insurance industry. We spent many memorable times with Claude, including his acting as Best Man at my wedding. My sincere condolences to his family and all friends who knew him.
