Saying goodbye to someone we love is heartbreaking. Claude was a good man and someone as wonderful as he will remain in our hearts forever. My favorite memory of Claude was when we were visiting him, Brenda, Stanley and Stacy and decided to go to the Smokey Mountains. Claude drove, with the adults in the front seat and the kids in the back, navigating the steep winding mountain roads with speed and expert agility. I can still remember the look of fear on my mom's face and us kids laughing as we slid and leaned into each other on every curve. It was an awesome ride and I believe that is when I developed my love of speed. I am truly honored and proud to be Claude's cousin. He will be greatly missed!
