He attended LaVeta elementary and high school and it was there that he met his wife, Lillie Taylor Brewer. They married in 1937 at age 16. Claud moved his family to Delano, California in 1944 when he entered the Army. He was stationed in Luzon, the Philippines until his discharge in 1946.
Claud and Lillie moved their family to Pixley, California in 1947 and he opened a real estate business there in 1952. He retired and closed his business in 1982. Retirement gave Claud more time for his passion of fishing and his fishing buddies. Claud became a Christian late in his life and it was his strong faith in God that sustained him during the six years that he cared for his Lillie who preceded him in death by six months.
