She is also survived by her brothers, David Chavez and Dennis Chavez; her mother, Joan and mother-in-law, Margaret. Claudette was preceded in death by her father, Sonny Chavez and brother, Tim. If Claudette could speak today, she would say "Thank you" to all of the loyal and caring friends she worked with over the years at ASI and SEA who never forgot her, "Thank you" to the nurses in Chemotherapy at Lovelace, and a very special "Thank you" to the Hospice Network at Presbyterian who helped her through her last days.
