Clara grew up attending Alquina United Methodist Church.

Clara was a custodian for Liberty Elementary School; she retired in 2011 after 20 years.
Clara loved listening to rock n roll music and going to the casino. She enjoyed playing softball and sitting down to read a good book. Clara most importantly enjoyed spending quality time with her family and her dogs, Carson and Willie, and her bird, Pete.
Clara will be greatly missed by her family, including her daughters, Janice (Larry) Crouch, Charlene (Larry) Stacy and Coleena (Chris) Moore; her sons, James (Leana) Dawson and Jason (Carol) Dawson; two sisters, Rozella Bothast and Janeen Paxton; 14 grandchildren, Sherron Wyatt, Casey Dale Cantrell, Whitney Garrett, Bear “Rob” Hendrix, Bradley Hendrix, Jonathan Moore, Joshua Moore, Stephanie Dawson, James D. “Buddy” Dawson Jr., Samantha Abner, Brittany Bentley, Jessica Johnson, Lane Deaton and Jayden Craig Dawson; 26 great-grandchildren with 2 on the way; 1 great-great-grandchild.
Along with her parents and husband, she was preceded in death by a grandson, Micky Soard.
Visitation for Clara was held on Friday, August 6, 2021 from 5 p.m. until 7 p.m. at Urban Winkler Liberty Funeral Home, 310 N. Main St. Liberty, Indiana 47353. The service immediately followed at the funeral home with Pastor Rob Judd officiating.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made in honor of Clara to Cincinnati Children's Hospital, 3333 Burnet Ave., Cincinnati, Ohio 45229; or to Edie Judd who qualified to dance in the 80th anniversary of Pearl Harbor Memorial Parade in Hawaii, she is raising money to be able to attend this; those can be made at the funeral home.
