My heart is so sad for each of you as you bear this huge loss. Claire's life was short-lived but packed with a lifetime of memories of the gift this angel was for you. Please know that you were so blessed to have had her in your lives, these memories and her courage and strength will ease the loss you are feeling.

Katherine & Nick,
I am so sorry to hear of the passing of my tiny friend. Though her own life was short, she has made a profound impact on mine. I feel eternally blessed to have met your family, gotten numerous Nanny Kellie hugs, and shared many late night NICU snuggles with Claire.
A small piece of my heart will be forever filled with her spirit. It will be shared with every little friend I have the privilege of caring for.
You are all in my thoughts. I am sending so much love home to you all ❤️
