I taught school with Clara Dawn and enjoyed every minute of it. She was a wonderful person and a terrific teacher. She was a graceful and beautiful woman inside.
I have missed Clara
Dawn since I’ve moved from WV to Fl and I will continue to miss her until I meet her in Heaven.
It was such a pleasure to help take care of her. She will be miss. Praying for the family.
