Aunt Clara,
I can still remember all the times I stayed with you when I was a child. We had so many fun adventures. Feeding the ducks together and the turtle we found together will always be cherished. Small memories like these are what I cherish from my 41 years on this earth.
I love you.

Aunt Clara was a great person. Even though we werent as close as I would of liked us to be as a family, I knew how much of an amazing person she was. I was looking at pictures the other day of her and read Sam's blogs and bulletins and it definately hit me. She is always going to live on in my heart. I love you & will miss you, Aunt Clara.

I lived with mommom for 5 years and been around her before i was born. Nineteen years she has been in my life and now my life is completely and truely empty. I will forever hold a place in my heart for her. One of the most nicest, generous, loving, people ive ever met. I will never ever forget the wonderful times we've had. I just wish she was here so she could see me get married and have children of my own someday. I love you mommom!!!!! xoxoxoxoxoxoxox

Clara was a very loved and close friend that I am going to miss very much. I spent lots of morning, at her house, and lots of time on the phone having wonderful conversations with her. She truly welcomed me into the family and into her home when I met Toni and was first introduced to everyone. This is a great loss to the family and I am keeping everyone in my prayers.
I Love You Clara
