Later she worked in Sauk City and it was in Sauk at the Riverside Dance Hall that she met Marvin at a wedding dance. They owned a farm on Lueders Road in Sauk for several years and it was there that she again enjoyed raising and taking care of chickens. Clara also enjoyed crocheting hundreds of beautiful doilies and as many know, they have received some of these over the years and remember the love that went into each one. She was a giving person, and since being a resident at Maplewood, loved to give apples and candy almost daily to the great people who cared for her. She loved everyone and was so thankful for all the wonderful care, love and hugs she received every day. Clara loved it when great-grandchildren would bring their art work into her. She would always make sure they were put on her bulletin board along with her many pictures, for her to see every day and think of the love that went into each one.
