What would life be like if you had no courage to attempt anything, Vincent van Gogh?
Claire was such an essential part of the Dickerson family in partnership with Peter (Pedro), together raising their daughters, who, with the guidance of Claire, have become partners, mothers, and parents in their own, with the support of Claire’s guidance and advice.
Claire possesses a lovely smile and a very approachable manner, which endeared her to many people, making her often a go-to person when seeking a friendly ear for support and guidance. Life had many ups and downs, as clear from Claire’s later years, which proved a challenge to navigate through life with, but she handled it admirably. Our communities are blessed to have such people live amongst us, being themselves and contributing so much to us all. Claire, in so many ways, enriched many enjoyable moments when the opportunity arose to meet with Claire.
Claire took a leadership role in the McGuinness family, as well as caring for and supporting her brothers and sisters whenever those moments arose.

It takes rain and sunshine to make a rainbow, unknown author
Claire would have gone through many a rainy day as the challenges came her way, then always enjoyed the sunshine when it arrived. With all of this put together, she clearly created a rainbow of a family to be proud of, one that included many of her immediate family and friends, such as ours, giving us many memories to cherish.
Life’s race well run,
A life’s work well done
Life’s victory won
Now come of the rest.
