                       Wednesday, April 14, 2021

  Ms. ESHOO. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor the life of Claire 
Cullen Earley, a San Carlos, California resident, who died on March 28, 
2021, Palm Sunday, at the age of 85.
  Claire Cullen was born on May 29, 1935, in Larchmont, New York, to 
Colonel William Joseph Cullen and Alice Cunningham Cullen. She was 
raised in Larchmont and Manhattan and earned a degree in Mathematics 
from Rosemont College. She worked as a computer programmer at Union 
Carbide in New York City where she met and later married Martin Vincent 
Earley. In 1971 they moved to San Carlos, where she began her lifelong 
commitment to her community.
  Claire Earley was the former President of the San Mateo County 
Association of Realtors, Director of the California Association of 
Realtors, a member of St. Charles Church in San Carlos and the San 
Carlos Rotary Club.
  She was predeceased by her husband Martin and her parents. She leaves 
her four beloved sons and their wives, and 11 adored grandchildren. She 
will be sorely missed by each of them as well as the many people who 
were blessed by her loyalty and generosity. I was blessed with her 
friendship for almost five decades.

  Madam Speaker, I ask the entire House of Representatives to join me 
in expressing our condolences to the family and friends of Claire 
Earley. She was a woman of great faith, a force of nature and always a 
force for good. We are a better community because of her and a stronger 
country.
