Dear Dave and family, God’s love is holding you close. Sending love and peace. In God’s Light, Anna Shouse
Thinking of you, Dave, Devon and Bonnie and sending my condolences. Claudell was a bright light in my life and that of many others. My special condolences go out to what used to be our congregation at Unity of Harrisburg. We all loved her sooo much! Do you remember the special ceremony we had to say goodbye to you and Claudell that New Year’s Eve? And then we went outside to ring in the New Year by raising a balloon of the earth up a flagpole instead of dropping a ball!
My love for Claudell inspired me to step out of myself to plan and conduct that ceremony that ended with the song “We will always love you, we will never forget you”.
Dear Dave and family,
Our thoughts go back to all of those years at Unity of Harrisburg when Claudell taught us so much. The message of Christ came through her more clearly than any minister we have ever experienced. She married Bill and I, 26 years ago this month. Her talents were so numerous and we especially remember the song she wrote that we often sang at Unity services. Bill has just remarked that Claudell was the most spiritual person he has ever known. Blessings to you and your family.
I learned so much from Claudell. I admired her many talents and listened to her advice. She was a mighty force. And I loved that she taught by example and shared her own struggles with us so that we could learn along with her. She will be missed. Condolences to all.??
Claudell you were such a caring, kind teacher and a loving presence at Unity Village in all the ways that you served. Godspeed dear one in your ongoing journey! We hold you in our hearts with much love and gratitude. Blessings and love to you, Dave and all the family as you move through the holidays without Claudell.

Although I met Claudell only a few times her essence remains with me always. Her child-like manner/her gentle voice/her loving ways made me feel as though I had known her my whole life. Thankyou for being such a dear friend to my wife Brenda Frost through ministerial school and beyond. I loved listening to the two of you chat over the phone….the memories of you will sustain Brenda and myself forever. Blessings to you Dave for always being by Claudell’s side with full support and your deep and palpable love!!!
Claudell was my favorite minister at Unity of Harrisburg. Her talks were inspiring, her music was beautiful and her love light just shone from her eyes. She baptized my oldest son Joey. I also appreciated how she taught me to claim my power during classes and one-on-one counseling. We missed her greatly after she moved to Unity Village.
Dear Claudell, I am forever grateful for the way my life changed when I met you. I was hired by you & worked for Unity as a musician & choir director for almost 30 years. Your talks were so inspiring; there were times our congregation was so large, we had two services each Sunday & I never tired of hearing you speak. You taught me the power of the spoken word; I often think of you when I stop & correct my speech! I will always love the song you wrote & the powerful love & dedication that sings through it. Bless you on your journey; I know you are continuing to shine your light & to use your many gifts. We all miss you.
And Dave, I pray for peace & strength for you. I’m so glad Claudell found you and that you had so many years & memories together.
Love, Kate McCutchan
I am blessed and grateful to have known Claudell through iamHeart. She brought joy and beauty, and uplifted us with her gifts of song, inspirational words, and great humor. She was an inspiration to her teachers and classmates.
Enfolding Claudell in the light of Spirit on her soul’s ongoing journey. Holding Dave and the family in comforting prayer. I am so grateful to have known Claudell and gotten to know her while I was a seminary student. We at Unity Worldwide Ministries see her surrounded by light and love and we know she blesses us from “the other side”….
Rev. Claudell County was my teacher in Unity Village back in 2000-2002. It is with a heavy heart that I now learn about her passing. I was an international student and she was such a great inspiration and joy to have around! Our entire class loved her, as she was nothing short of a mother-like figure. Her smile, love and music will forever be with me. Rest in peace, beautiful soul!
