This memorial website was created in the memory of our loved one, Claude Aaron Price, 64, born on July 27, 1940 and passed away on April 19, 2005 of a heart attack. He had suffered from high blood pressure for years, yet still led an active lifestyle. His death was a shock. He was survived by his two daughters, Claudia Erin Price and Marie Colleen Mifflin, his sister Rue Dean Doolin, his brothers Eugene Price and Rodney Price. We will remember him forever.
Dad had started jogging when he turned 50, while he was still living in Woomera, South Australia. We met in Waikiki in 1991 for a vacation trip. He wanted to enter a 1mi. fun run to benefit the Waikiki Zoo and talked me into it. We did, it was a first race for both of us, it was so much fun. We went on to do some 5k races after that. He continued to jog until his early 60s. He said it just didn't feel good any more.
In 1992 Dad and I went on a trip to the Galapegos Islands. We were on a yacht for an entire week. He loved to travel. We celebrated his 52nd birthday there on the boat. In this picture they purchased a bottle of champange on one of the islands to celebrade his Birthday, they made the cake on the boat... It was amazing. The champagne was flat and the cork fell flat on the table. Dad, not wanting to dissapoint, quickly picked up the cork and flung it up in the air with his thumbs.
