We are deeply saddened by Clara’s passing. Our sincere condolences to Clara’s family, especially my best friend Rose Mary Shalla. I met Clara at your parents home when we were in Junior High.

Rose, I’m here for you when you’re ready to talk. Our love and hugs are with you and the family. May your love and memories of Clara comfort everyone. Clara is at peace with our Lord.

Denny, So sorry to hear about Clara. We will cherish the memories of bowling together and the trips we made. Take care of yourself.

Dennis,

Sorry to hear about your loss. Times are tough, they will get better.

Talked to McGire, we’ll get together when he gets home and will have a couple cold ones.

Hang in there...Phil

Sorry for your loss Denny. Thoughts and prayers.

R.I.P. Clara--very much enjoyed working with Clara at NCS and Pearson Education. She always took care of the team with her love and baking skills.

We are very sorry and saddened to learn of Clara’s passing. Our condolences and sympathy goes out to her family, Denny, Tracy, Shawn. Very fond memories of the many years of being neighbors, both in Iowa City (California Ave.) as well as in Lakeview Knolls, Frantz Subdivision. We will always cherish those times. We always enjoyed the times bowling, playing cards and making/drinking homemade wine with Clara and family. Clara was a joy to be around, always a smile on her face and willing to help anyone in need. We will miss her dearly.

Clara was a great friend. She had a wonderful laugh but when she had a bitch she was not shy about letting you know........i loved that too. I am so sorry to all her family we lost a wonderful person.

Rose you did so much trying to keep her happy and spending so much time with her. I love you so much my dear friend. When you are ready, call me and we will get together.

I hope all of her family members hang on to all your memories and let them give you all peace.

So sorry for your lost. Had fun with Clara when we worked at ACT and Pearson. And bowling.

You are being remembered as our classmate and friend, Clara.

I will always remember my Aunt Clara’s smile and her wonderful laugh.

Her giggle was the best, I smile as I think about it. I can hear it now.

Clara loved to bake and she would make the best cakes for me and my sister’s birthday’s. Winnie The Pooh, ET, Care Bears... if we loved it, she would make it.

My deepest sympathy and love goes out to all of my family.

Sending you all a big hug. I am with you in spirit.

I met Clara through bowling, which is how Tracy and I met, and then the rest of the family and I became friends. We bowled together many years and went to a lot of tournaments. I always loved to tease her and call her "Clara Bell"! It was always great to run out to the house on the weekends when she would make her homemade biscuits and gravy for breakfast! She always had her nails looking spectacular! I'm glad I got to sit and chat with her when Cindy recently had her hand surgery. She will be missed! Take care!

I'm sorry to hear of Clara's passing. I would periodically visit with her in the halls of Pearson. She was a wonderful woman! May you find comfort in your memories during this difficult time.

Clara is my cousin who was always smiling and laughing with that contagious giggle that made everyone smile in the room. You will forever be in my heart.

My sympathy and love go to each of the family, I am with you in spirit.

We were very saddened to learn of Clara's passing. Our deepest sympathy to her family. Clara was a very giving person, and loved sharing things with her family and friends. Her smile was genuine and always made those around her smile as well. Thankful to have been a part of her family throughout her life. We will miss you!

Steve and Sandra Schlote
