She was a great lady and I remember her well at Trendwear helping us out with whatever big project we had, like the operation freedom shirts we did.

Gerald & Maureen,
     Rose and I were so sad to hear of Aunt Clara's passing. I have such fond memories of her going all the way back to Mountain Ave in Summit. Her personality always 'lit up' the room. We'll never forget she and Uncle Jerry, how lucky they were to have had each other. Pat & Rose

We were so sad to hear about Aunt Clara who always showed me her love and could always make me laugh. My prayers in mass today were for her.

Dear Jer & Maureen:  I am so sad on learning of Aunt Clara's death, she was a wonderful aunt and I am so happy that Jody and I got to see her this past Sunday.  I'll miss her so much, especially when I am in Florida.  Love, Cousin Mary

Gerald and Maureen,

Aunt Clara was a great woman and she will be missed.  I have many fond memories from childhood when my family would visit NJ, and one I always will remember about Aunt Clara was when she would say goodbye, she would always give my brother and I a big hug.  At the same time, she subtly put a $5 bill in each of our hands and would close it tightly with her hand.  She did this from the time I was little and even into my late teens, at which time I told her, that she didn't need to do that anymore and that I was "grown up".  She looked at me very sternly and said, "Mark, this is a gift and I'm not taking it back--I don't care how old you are."  Another great memory was having brunch at her condo in FL.  She always had little breakfast treats for you when you showed up (announced or unannounced) and would sit and talk to you for hours.  Finally, and I will never forget this, unlike a lot of older people I knew growing up, she was a late night person.  She always told anyone that you could call her late in the evening--even if it was really late as she would often go to bed around or after midnight.  However, she was very clear that you were to never call her early in the morning.  Rest in peace, Aunt Clara.  Love, Mark and family

Dear Gerald & Maureen,

Aunt Clara will greatly be missed but her memories we will always treasure!!!
All Our Love, Diane, Wayne, Dana & Alyssa
