Clara was a feisty firecracker, never shy about sharing her thoughts; her bubby personality brightened the day. She enjoyed countless hours sitting on the dock out back of her home.
Clara retired from the School District of Hillsborough County Student Nutrition System as the Manager of the Cafeteria at Buchanan Middle School. She was the eldest of nine siblings, a devoted wife to her husband Richard who passed away in 1979, a loyal friend, and a favorite aunt to many of her nieces and nephews.
Clara is predeceased by her husband, and one sister.
She is survived by 2 sisters, 5 brothers, numerous nieces and nephews and countless friends.
A visitation for Clara will be held Monday, December 26, 2022 at 1pm with a funeral service at 2pm at Blount & Curry Funeral Home at Garden of Memories, 4207 E Lake Ave, Tampa FL 33610. Interment will follow at Garden of Memories Cemetery.
