To Manuel & Family,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you at a time like this.
Clara was a wonderful Sister to me. We shared alot of laughter, she taught me many things in life, cooking for one. She was the best of the best.
I will send a balloon up at the time of her service. My heart and soul will be there with you all. She is in Gods hands now and will join our Family in Heaven. God Bless you all.
Love Daryle & Family
