With Deepest Sympathy to the family and friends of Ms. Clara Mae Blue:

May God Bless the Blue Family during this time of sorrow. Ms Blue was a very wonderful, kind ,and loving person who always displayed a beautiful smile on her face. She was a Godly woman that God used her to give encouraging words of wisdom to all who had an attentive ear to listen to the humble words that she spoke.

Ms. Blue will always live in our hearts and prayers, and we will cherish her memories forever. We loved her, but God loved her best. The heavenly angels are rejoicing as she enter the gates of heaven because on earth she fought a good fight, and she finished her course, and God said: "Enter in that good and faithful servant".

R.I.P. , Ms. Blue -"The Royal Queen"
of Daytona Beach , Florida is gone from earth, but she will not be forgotten because we will love her and miss her always.
