We are so very sad to hear of Aunty Clare’s passing – we always enjoyed our catch ups at family reunions and she was a caring and loving sister-in-law for our dad Jim when he was ill for many years.

15. Our deepest sympathy to all of Clare’s family. We are saddened to hear of Clare’s death. I will miss our chats after church as we walked to our cars off on to another week filled with busyness. Loved hearing about her grandchildren of whom she was most proud and our beloved Cats. She was always kind in her appraisal of how they played. I so loved her gentleness and loving smile.
