It is with deep sadness that we announce the death of Claudia Golden, after her courageous and valiant 14-month fight with cancer, a beloved mother, daughter, and friend who passed away on August 25, 2023. Claudia, born in 1963, lived a life full of kindness, intelligence, sweetness, and fun. Her radiant spirit and unyielding love will always be remembered.

Claudia was a beacon of strength for her surviving son, Jonathan Brooks. Her warm heart and wise words provided him with comfort and guidance throughout their shared journey of life. Claudia's enduring love and infinite dedication to her son made their bond unbreakable, and her legacy of friendship will touch the lives of many to come.

In addition to her son, Claudia is survived by her father, William Stearns. She was preceded in death by her mother, Carla Stearns. Despite the sorrow of losing her mother early in her life, Claudia's resilience shone through.
