So sorry I missed the visitation - Clara was a fine person. We worked together for many years and I have to say she was the best administrator I ever worked with at Philip Morris. She truly cared for all the professionals she supported and if she ever made a mistake - I missed it ! She was quick to learn any new office technology and frequently assisted others trying to learn. She could juggle a dozen activities with ease. I always rated her performance as "Consistently Exceeds Requirements".
