Dear Barb and Julie - I am so sorry for the loss of your Aunt Clara.She gave it a good fight didn't she - living to 92 years old. She was a strong woman and had so much determination. I wanted to come to the services but I've got my bronchial problems and can't breath very well; however, I wanted to extend my sincerest sympathy and to let you know my thoughts and prayers are with you.LoveRosie
