Obituary of Claire Richard-Stenberg
Claire (Pelletier) Richard-Stenberg, 86, of Danvers, died peacefully Thursday morning at Brookdale Assisted living facility in Danvers following a lengthy battle with Lymphoma. She was the devoted wife of Robert Stenberg with whom she shared over 23 years of marriage, and previously the late Philip Talbot Richard. Born in Salem, she was the daughter of the late P. Alcide and Viola (Grenier) Pelletier. She was raised and educated in Salem Massachusetts. Claire owned and operated Homes by Claire in Danvers for many years before retiring. She enjoyed Ball Room Dancing at the Wonderland Ball Room in Revere where she met her husband Robert. She enjoyed the outdoors in the winter time, especially cross country and snow skiing the New England slopes. She also loved singing and was a member of the West Congregational Church Choir. Besides her loving husband Robert, she is survived by her two sons and daughters-in-law, Philip and Patricia Richard and Nathan and Lisa Richard, all of Peabody, her step-children, Robert Stenberg, Jr, Karen Mason and Joseph McGonagle, her beloved 7 grandchildren, Jacqui, Jenna, Jordan, Janelle, Joseph, Daniel, and Carla. She was predeceased by her sisters, Rita Roy and Theresa Benoit. Claire was a vibrant, confident, and beautiful soul. Her love of her Savior, family and friends was so real and honest. She left a trail of loving relationships with virtually all that she encountered. She was a great listener who was full of wisdom. She was so happy to share that wisdom with her kids, grandkids, the staff at Brookdale, Care Dimensions and everyone she engaged with. She will be missed physically but will always be at the center of our hearts.
