Clara’s bright light and loving spirit were always evident at Skidaway Island United Methodist Church, where my family and I were longtime members. She made everyone feel welcome, always spoke with kindness to everyone, and truly conveyed her caring concern when anyone experienced loss or was ill. She and my late mother were dear friends, both members of DAR and PEO.
Clara treasured her family and faith. She possessed an eminently beautiful heart. She lived her life in service to others, and the many people whose lives she touched will always remember the bright light of her spirit. It was truly an honor to know Clara.
My deepest sympathy to her loved ones,
Paula
