Clare Marie Davis

Clare received a Bachelors degree in business from Bradley University in Peoria, Illinois and enjoyed a 27 year career as a business teacher for Adams County School District 14, 23 & 27J. She met her husband John Davis in 1964 at a teacher function and they married in Fort Collins, Colorado on July 17, 1965.

They shared their life with their three children, Kelly Marie, who passed away at the age of 2 1/2 in 1970, and twin sons Monte Avery and Matthew Ashley.

Clare had an extensive doll collection with one doll that was over 100 years old. She was always ready to travel and travelled around the world with her husband, John. Clare was always ready to work on the family farm. Her favorite past-time was fishing and she always managed to catch the "big one".

Clare loved her children, and her proudest moments were the birth of her daughter Kelly and the adoption of her sons Monte and Matthew. She was the proud mom watching her sons show their animals in 4H and was always there to watch them in sporting activities. She also enjoyed watching her grandchildren in their athletic events.

Clare is survived by her devoted husband John, her two sons, Monte and Matthew, and grandchildren, Shelbi, Haley, and Jayden, and one great-grandchild, Braidynn. She is also survived by two sisters, Nancy Wyatt and Susan Jost.

A memorial service for Clare will be held Thursday, June 21, 2018 at 1:00 PM at Olinger Highland Chapel, 10201 Grant Street, Thornton, Colorado 80229. Following the memorial service will be a reception in the Long's Peak Reception room.
