Not sure what to say?

I believe Clara was blessed with a long life so she could continue being the blessing that she was to others. What a wonderful lady.

I had the honor of working with Miss Clara at Lakin many years ago. I went there as a 19 year old & immediately thought I had made the wrong decision but she always had words of encouragement & kindness offered guidance for me. I ended up staying for 30 years. Such a wonderful lady! My sincere sympathy to the family. Heaven surely gained a angel with her passing!!!

What a great lady, neighbor ,mother and always a friend willing to help someone else. She will be always be missed.

So sorry for your loss. Clara was a wonderful lady. Always so kind and always had a smile and a kind word for everyone.
