During the course of his life Claude had many careers in many locations with his most recent being on the water hauling lobsters in his fishing boat. His favorite places to be were on the water, in the woods and with his family. Claude was a hard working, busy man and could most often be found working on his wharf, in his sheds or on various carpentry projects in his home, cabin or sons homes in Alberta.

He made a lasting impression, was loved and put a smile on the faces of all who knew him. He leaves to mourn and will be greatly missed by his wife Mary, sons Claude (Lisa), Toby and Raymond (Melissa); grandchildren Nicholas, Jordan, Trinity and Kiana.
