I will be forever grateful to Aunt Clara and Uncle Charlie for being there when my mother, my sisters and I needed her help. I don't know what we would have done if they didn't give us an apartment in their house. They helped us in many, many ways.
I will remember her as my mother's other half - the tiny,perky red-head.
Good-bye Aunt Clara - may you rest in peace.
Your niece, Jean.

One of your many nieces, Pauline.
