Clara worked for GTE for 14 years before retiring in 1991.
She was a loving wife and mother; she loved going to church and spending time with her family and friends. Clara was an outstanding cook and enjoyed preparing meals for them. She was an avid bowler and enjoyed fishing until her accident in 1997, which did little to slow her down. Despite being confined to a wheelchair her spirit and zest for life was unquenchable, she was never one to complain about her situation. She always had a smile and never met a stranger.

Thanks for 17 years of loving care and support from a very special person more like a sister than a caregiver, Merle Cuellar. Thanks to our church family at Belmore Baptist Church for their prayers, love and support. The family would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the Doctors, Nurses and all the staff of Shannon ICU and 4th Floor and Odyssey Hospice.
God Bless
