She was an inspiration to all by sharing her gifts of kindness, encouragement, support and unconditional love. She enjoyed her summers with family members at Sandy Hook and Nutimik and travelled frequently to vacation spots outside Canada. Clara was a founding member of Westworth United Church, a past president and life member of the U.C.W., a member of West Winnipeg Rotary Anns, and was active in the McKinnon Guild, working at the Nearly New Shop for 24 years, and made hundreds of knitted mitts for children. She enjoyed her many years living at the Courts of St. James where she developed many close friendships. Though your smile is gone forever And your hand we cannot touch. We will never lose the memory Of one we loved so much. Thanks for the loving years you gave us The happy times we shared We all pray that when you left us You knew how much we cared. Clara has requested a private family service. If friends so desire, a donation in Claras memory can be made to the Westworth United Church, 1750 Grosvenor Ave., Winnipeg, MB R3N 0H9.
