Oh Carol Sue, yes, please do send me her families address that I may send a condolence card.
I will put some thoughts together about the lovely quilt blocks that I have from her and will send the thoughts to you later today.
With sadness in heart but joy as well to have had the opportunity to e-chat with her and to have some of her blocks in loving memory of her.
Think Pink, ladies & lets hope we do not lose another sister, friend, mother, child or neighbor to cancer.

Carol Sue, I don't believe I knew Clare, but she was one of my farmgirls sisters which means a lot to me! My prayers go out to her family and those that were close to her!

| I also looked up Clare's posts since I didn't know her well as I am newer to the forum. How sad to lose such a vibrant soul. My prayers and heartfelt sympathies to her dear husband and sweet children. |

Carol Sue,
Even though I didn't have the good fortune to get to know Clare, thank you for caring enough to let us know of her passing and for wanting to give back to her family. Even if they just got to read these simple posts-they would know how much she meant to so many and how much she was loved. I'll keep them in my prayers and you too! It's very clear she was dear to you and that she will be sorely missed by you.

Carol Sue,
Thank you for letting us know of Clare's passing into glory. We will surely miss her, she was so loving to all and I know she is no longer suffering from the cancer. Her husband and family we'll be in my prayers as they have to go on without her in this life. She just exuberated the spirit within her and I hope I am a better soul for having had her for a farmgirl friend. I will remember her fondly and cherish the beautiful quilt blocks she made.

Hearing about Clare's passing yesterday left me feeling out of sorts and strange. It is funny, you know, we all touch each other's hearts in this forum and come to call each other "friend" and yet most of us have never actually met. But still, when one of us passes or moves on, there is a hole left behind. I never met Clare, even though she was a PA girl like me...but I often thought of her up there in the northeast corner....wondering what yummy quilts she would be working on. It is so good to know that in the end, so many of our farmgirls gave a piece of themselves to her so that she could know that at any given moment, someone had her in their hearts. Rest peacefully, Clare, the fight is over...may you spend your days wrapped in the quilt of God's love.

I know I am not farm girl of the month but I Think Clare's family should be for next month ( just all of use make them them that way) to let them know that they are loved during the holiday season. I loved clare she was such a great friend to me we exchanged things with each other often. She sent me ME mags and I sent her a yoyo quilt as just a few of the things that passed between us her presents here on the forum will be greatly missed. Much love to her in heaven and her family here on earth.
have a lovely day and may God bless you and keep you safe

Even though I never met Clare in person, her bravery and the fineness of her spirit and courage will be part of me for the rest of my life. It was an honor to 'know' her and be a witness to her journey. I grieve for Clare and I pray for strength for her family. It's easy to say that someone was 'one of a kind', but Clare was just that. She really was.

Even though I never met Clare on the farmgirl connection, like someone said earlier, we farmgirls are still all connected at heart and her passing has touched me deeply. To read all the posts and feel the love that flowed between her and others is inspiring. It's always hard to be left behind when a loved one passes on but I would think it's especially hard around the holiday season. I'll be keeping her family and all of you, especially you, Carol Sue, in my prayers.
God bless -

That is so sad.....I'm very sorry to hear of her passing. From reading her past posts, I know she put up a good battle. She's at peace and out of pain now. My condolences to her family. Judy

I found out today that my dear friend Clare has passed away. You would have to look up my start date on this forum, but soon after finding this forum, Clare found me. She emailed me after reading my response to a topic about what magazines we subscribe to. We were both magazine junkies, and it turned out our tastes were quite similar. We were instantly sisters. We wrote each other real snail mail letters, sewed each other gifts just because and encouraged each other in our walk with God. Her family was always topic number one and I feel as if I know them from her words and the pictures she sent. She made me a beautiful half apron from Christmas fabric of green and gold and red cardinals; it was the first apron ever made for me and it hangs in my kitchen year around. I have so many gifts she made me, and what is amazing is so many other women do too!! She had so much to give!
I am broken-hearted at her loss. I am so sorry for the experience that Steve and her precious children are going through. My prayers are with you all. Your wife and mother left no doubt with any of us about how much she loved you; loved being with and doing for you.
I am so blessed to have known her. The media of course magnifies the bad when it comes to meeting people on-line. (And if it keeps our kids safer, so be it) but I made a true friend in Clare and I will truly miss her.
My soul magnifies the Lord, And my spirit rejoices in God my Savior. Luke 1:46,47
