She had connections to Framingham as she worked at Framingham Union while residing in the city for many years. During this time, she made great friends and memories. She then moved to Milford and worked at Milford Regional Hospital. Claudette was dedicated to her career as a nurse, her family was very proud of her. After many years she settled back in Marlborough, where she was born and raised, one of six children to the late Nelson J. and Mary E. (Misner) Dion.
