Claire (Black) Welsh

Welsh, Claire (nee Black)

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the death of a dear wife and sister Claire Welsh. She will be remembered as a great teacher and principal who spent her entire career in education in Iroquois Falls. She had no children of her own but cherished every student she ever taught. Her hobbies included curling, golf, travelling and entertaining. She touched the lives of everyone she met with her smile, songs and poems. She will be forever remembered by the love of her life, Jack. She leaves behind her siblings; Jean (Pete) Pecaric, Marg (Gerry) Boucher of North Bay, brother; Chris (Jenny) of Goderich and many nieces and nephews whom she adored and spoiled on every visit. She was predeceased by her mother and father; Marcelle and Clayton Black, her sister Ida-May and baby sister Annette. Family will be receiving visitors at the McGuinty Funeral Home (North Bay) on Sunday February 4th, 2018 from 2-4 & 7-9 pm. A memorial mass will be celebrated at the Pro-Cathedral of the Assumption on Monday February 5th, 2018 at 10 am. Donations to the Canadian Cancer Society would be gratefully appreciated by her family. Online condolences can be made at www.mcguintyfuneralhome.com
