We have many fond memories of Aunt Clara, she will be missed by many. Our Deepest Sympanthies, Ron and Barbara
Clara was such a sweet person. We, Flonnie, Mickey and Norma and myself use to stop to see her in Payson and later in Glendale. We all worked with her at Mt Bell and so enjoyed visiting with her. My sympathy to the family, she will be missed.
We all love Clara and so enjoyed visiting with her in Payson and Glendale. She was such a sweet person. Mickey Grover
I worked with Clara for 30 years. She was a very dear friend of mine. I have spent time with her at her home in Phoenix, at her home in Payson, and at the assisted living home. She will always be in my heart. She was such a loving and kind person. I enjoyed her contagious laugh and her sweet spirit. I will miss her . I send my deepest sympathy to her family.
