My sincere condolences. I have fond memories of Claudia’s presence in our mom’s kitchen enjoying a good old chinwag. She looked forward to her visits as I did around st Patrick’s day when I’d drop by for one of her ‘podcasts’.
Toodle-oo dear friend.

I met Claudia while working at The Record many years ago and I don't remember once her not coming to say Hi with her beautiful smile and stories to tell. She was accompanied quite often by her daughters. Who did not know Claudia in the Eastern Townships? She was an icon. Just loved the lady. May you rest in peace now, Claudia. My deepest sympathies to her family.

Sincere sympathy to all members of Claudia Villemaire. I knew Claudia from many walk of life but most recent years through the arts. We spoke on the phone, but after my retirement for RCGT, we lost touch. Claude Metras
