Clsrissa was a wonderful person. I always knew she would be in business, because that was what she was all about(business). She was for real in what ever she did. Her and I would exchange conversation by e-mail and classmate.com. I will miss chating with her. To the family my prayers are with you. I pray that God will give you acceptance and understanding to the breaking of your family links. Gladys--Class Of 1970

Clarissa and I were classmates in elementary/East End through high school class of 1970 R B Hudson High. I last saw her at a class reunion I think 1995. It was wonderful seeing her and getting a moment to chat with her "about the good "ole" days. I remember Clarissa as being a smart and serious student; it is wonderful to know that she accomplished much and that her dedication to her studies paid off. My thoughts, prayers are with you, may you find comfort in pleasant memories. Please accept my condolesnces in your time of sorrow. Gloria Weaver Class of 1970
