A single-vehicle crash occurred in Baton Rouge around 1:30 a.m. Saturday, November 2nd in the area of South Foster Drive and Claycut Road.

Claire is survived by her parents and one sibling, according to her cousin Carrie Zeller.

“I am truly at a lost of words. Please keep my family, especially my aunt, uncle and cousin, in your prayers as they will need all the strength during the upcoming days. Claire was my cousin, the baby cousin. Saying she will be missed is a drastic understatement,” Carrie wrote in a teary goodbye to her cousin.
