Dear Bonnie, Anne and families – your Mom was a great friend to my Mom, life long friends and relatives. I&&single&&ve heard many great stories of them as young girls. Clarissa will be missed by many – she lived a good and honourable life…and was a genuinely nice person. I was happy you were able to use the picture of both of them at the funeral – my Mom was so pleased and yours would have been too.
