CLAIRE POSNER It is with deep sadness we announce the passing of Claire Posner, at the age of 93, on May 21, 2011. She leaves to mourn her sons, Murray (Sue), Barry (Sharon) and her grandsons, Adam (Christiane), Daniel and Cort Posner. She was predeceased by her parents Harry and Rose Order and her husband Alex (Lucky) Posner. Claire was born in Russia and the family settled in Montreal, Quebec. She attended business college and became a professional bookkeeper. She met her husband Alex and was married for 30 short years before he passed away in 1968. She was a widow at 50 years of age. She developed a retail dress shop called Al-Claire Fashions and eventually retired in 1975. She was a wonderful mother, grandmother and mother-in-law. She always cared and worried about every one especially her two boys. She loved to have us all together for family meals and especially all the holidays. Mom was always there for us and the kids, you could go to her anytime to talk about problems and worries. She always made time for us no matter what the topic and was always very supportive. Life will never be the same without our Claire. We would like to thank the staff at the Simkin Centre for all their care especially Teta, Andy, Josie and Jamie and the medical staff at the Grace Hospital. The funeral was a graveside ceremony with Gerry Daien officiating. We would also like to thank Ted Kasloff, Aaron Migie, and Rod Gordon for being pallbearers. Rest in peace Claire We will miss you forever!!!! Love, your family. If desired, donations can be made in Claire's name to any charity of your choice.
