NY, son of Rosemarie Krage Claflin and the late Aaron "Steve" Stevenson Claflin.

astronomy, golf, football on Sundays, reading, poker, traveling, and having a
good time with his friends and family. Surviving are his son, Shane; daughter,
Jessica; daughter, Cassidy; grandchildren, Chase James, Julie Geraldine, Alli
Rosemarie, and Ayla Rose; mother, Rosemarie; brother, Tim and his wife, Liz;
nieces, Whitney, Julia and Nicole; as well as his good friend Gayle. He is
predeceased by father, Steve; brother, Peter Cl-67; niece, Danielle; his beloved
dog, Tucker Lord of the Rock. In lieu of services, his family asks for you to
