Claire was absolutely made for teaching, always a buzz of excitement and often the heart and soul of St. Teresa's. She was always good for a chat and my overriding memory of Claire is that she was an extremely decent person. As was said at the funeral by many, I'm privileged to have met Claire and enjoyed years working alongside her.
My deepest sympathies to Barry, Cara, Elise. All the O'Sheas and Mannings.

We would like to send our deepest condolences and sympathies to Barry, the girls and all of Claire's fmaily and friends. Claire was nothing short of brilliant. The gap left by Claire cannot be filled in St. Teresa's, what we have to do is try and honour Claire by growing with her memory.
My deepest sympathy to Barry, Cara, Elise and the O’Shea and Manning families. I had the pleasure of working with Claire for many years in St. Teresa’s. Claire was a breath of fresh air in our school always full of fun both in and out of the classroom. Her dedication to the children and to the school was exceptional. Claire was so generous with her time and energy which I will never forget. I thank her for giving me the opportunity to work with her aunt Alice. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her. Rest in peace Claire
Claire was a wonderful presence in so many lives. I encountered Claire in St. Teresa's ps. where she was always ready for a chat willing to share advice and resources. She was involved in the Christmas production of the shiniest Star and always did an amazing job. I will always remember Claire at Christmas time when our play is staged.
Rest in peace always.
Rest in peace always.
My sincere condolences to Claire's family. I will never forget her kindness and how she welcomed me with open arms when I started in St. Teresa’s as her classroom assistant. It was an absolute pleasure to be in Claire's class and to witness her pure passion, enthusiasm and love for her job and for the children. She was great craic too and filled each day with fun and positivity. She will be sorely missed by all.
I was so sad to hear of Claires untimely passing. I met Claire many a time through Ciara Mullan and always enjoyed her company and humour whether at wedding, hen party or night out. I fondly remember l bumping into Claire in Keffalonia in Greece one summer night and sharing the craic and fun on such a random meeting. To Barry, Elise and Cara my sincere sympathy and the Manning and O' Shea family too. Rest in peace Claire.
To all who loved Claire I just want to offer my heartfelt condolences.She was truly a special person who touched the lives of so many.The celebration of life ceremony was testament to her popularity,her sincerity as a friend and her enthusiasm for everything. May her light live on in her two little girls and her spirit calm the sadness of all those who miss her so much.Noreen, Geoffrey and the girls.
A month has passed and I still can't fathom that you have gone.
Our lives crossing paths 10 years ago on the Camino was such a blessing. Our friendship since has been a real treasure. You were a fierce good friend.
You lived life fully with fun and purpose and your most exciting adventure with Barry and your beautiful girls was your most precious chapter. I'm sure you are loving and minding them from afar.
Rest in Peace Claire,
Buen Camino bud, love you and miss you xx

My deepest condolences to Claire's family. We met through our March Mams group in which she made a huge impact and was always there for everyone. She was such a lovely, beautiful and genuine person and always on hand to share advice. I always found solice in sharing voice notes during our maternity leaves.

I’m shocked and so sad over the loss of lovely Claire. We go back a long way, through many ups and downs, fun times, adventurous times, seasons in the sun, and the other more difficult times when she supported me in my life struggles.

Sincerest condolences to all who knew Claire. I got to know her kindness, love of life and her wanting to give the children all experiences when I was invited into her school many years back to give a talk to the children in her class as to what a guide dog is and how I manage life as a blind person.
She encouraged the children to ask questions and she asked many herself as I often heard her say every day is a learning day even for us teachers. Thank you Claire for opening that willing door into St Teresas school for me. You will be missed forever.

Deepest condolences to Barry, Cara , Elise, Claire & Barry’s families and wider circle of friends on the passing of Claire. I had the pleasure of working with Claire since 2011. Claire welcomed new teachers with open arms and was always forthcoming with advice and guidance . Claire was a dedicated colleague and an even better friend. In 2013 we shared the First Communion classes and I’ll never forget the laugh and craic that was had in the run up to the ceremony. Claire saw potential in each child and trialled a variety of approaches and learning styles to unlock the best of each child under her care. I had the pleasure of sharing a classroom with Claire in 2022-2023. Claire brought fun, laughter, craic and comradeship to each school day. I will truly miss her infectious laugh, her witty voicenotes, our heart to hearts and her many random acts of kindness. Claire always saw the best in others. Her compassion, empathy and kindness towards her colleagues and pupils was apparent in our school and the wider school community. Claire loved being a mammy. She adored her babies Cara and Elise. She loved a good NEXT sale and made sure the girls were kitted out in the latest trends. Claire will be sorely missed by all who were lucky to know and love her. May Claire rest in eternal peace. Xxx
Sincere condolences to Claire's husband, her beautiful children, her family and friends. I knew Claire in college and she like a breath of fresh air coming into the room. She always has the brightest smile and was such a bubbly, outgoing girl. I hadn't seen Claire for years but we always had great fun meeting her and her lovely group of friends on nights out during our St. Pat's days. May her gentle soul rest in peace and may all her family and friends find comfort in beautiful memories they have of her. 🙏
My condolences to all Claire's immediate and extended families. This is a very sad loss to you all; Claire was a really lovely person. Rest in Peace.
My deepest condolences to Barry, Cara, Elise, the Manning and O'Shea families and all of Claire's many, many groups, gangs and crews.
I had the absolute privilege to know and teach alongside Claire as part of the team in St. Teresa's for the last 15 years. She saw the good in every child and worked tirelessly to help them achieve their potential.
She was the most amazing person and friend, with a zest for life that was unparalleled. She was our pint sized pocket rocket with the biggest heart, who would do anything for you. Her rocky road was the highlight of the staffroom and her River Dance moves rivaled those of Michael Flatley.
Claire, you will be loved always and remembered forever in my heart. Sleep well bud. xx

Claire, I had the pleasure of working with you for the past 9 years. You were a wonderful friend and colleague. I remember yours being one of the first friendly faces I met in June 2015 when I came to St. T's for that initial 'visit'. We shared a love of live music and we had some great nights in Whelan's and the The Grand Social to name but a few!
I wish to offer my sincere condolences to Barry, Cara, Elise, the Manning and O'Shea families and all who knew Claire. A life taken from this world far too soon.
Claire, may you continue to shine bright always xxx

My deepest sympathies to Barry, Cara and Elise and all of Claire's family. I still can't believe it. I knew Claire for a long time in college and during the years after. She was always kind and always smiling. I hadn't seen her in a few years and then I met her in Stoneybatter a few years ago and it was just big laughs, big chats; great to see her.
There are no words sufficient to describe the depth of the tragedy this is for your family.
I first met Claire 20 years ago. She was always so bubbly, so good humoured and having bumped into her recently, it was obvious how dedicated she was to her two little ones.
My deepest condolences to all who loved her. Her passing is an immeasurable loss.
