It breaks my heart to have to bring bad news to the blog. On Memorial Day, we lost a dear friend to the bar, one of our original Sunday Brew Crew members, CLAIRE.
For those of you who didn't know her, CLAIRE was a wonderful young lady with a bubbly personality, a quick wit and what you would call a "guy's girl". An original member of the "Sunday Brew Crew", CLAIRE knew as much about football as any guy I knew; she could talk about fantasy football just as well as she could about the stock market. She fit right in with the gang and could give and take with the best of them. That's what you liked about her initially; However, as you got to know her, you found that she was much more than just a girl who knew her football. She was a young lady who wasn't afraid to stick up for her beliefs, and more importantly, she wasn't afraid to live her life.CLAIRE was diagnosed with cancer almost three years ago. Initially given only a few months to live, our friend faced her diagnosis head on and ended up fighting the courageous fight, outlasting the prognosis of her doctors by a couple of years. Even up to her last few days, she was fighting the brave fight, even while suffering unbearable pain and discomfort. All the while she had the love and support of her husband and best friend, JOE, who was there for her every step of the way.
The Third and Long family send their thoughts and prayers to the families of CLAIRE and JOE during this difficult time. For those of you wishing for information on the upcoming services for CLAIRE, reach out to me and I will get the information to you as soon as it becomes available to me.
CLAIRE, you were a gem and you will be missed. Cheers.
