Claire Mamizuka

Claire Mamizuka was born October 31, 1941 in Snoqualmie Falls to parents Ralph and Ann. Rose went to Heaven August 9, 2014.

She was a graduate of Tolt High School, class of ‘59. Claire managed Shultz Distributing in Snoqualmie for 20 years. She loved life and spent the last 2 decades traveling the country with her husband of 30 years, Harry.

A lifelong Valley resident, she raised children Jeanne Harden Brokofsky, Ken Dillman, Harry Mamizuka Jr. and Resi Mamizuka in her beloved North Bend home. After she was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma Cancer, Claire moved to the cabin she and Harry built near Cle Elum in the historic town of Liberty. There she never knew a stranger.

Hospitality was her God given gift and she used it well. Everyone was welcome and no one left hungry. She also had a talent for shopping. Her and her dear friend who was also her sister in-law spent great quality time together perfecting this. Her grandkids will miss Nana’s special packages. She was and is loved dearly and we look forward to the day we see her again.

She leaves her husband, 4 children, 9 grandchildren and many friends with fun and loving memories.

A private celebration of life will be held at her home. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Joyce Meyer ministries as this was her favorite bible teacher. Cards can be sent to Flintoft’s Funeral Home and will be forwarded to her family.
