  • Notes 
    • Clara passed away peacefully at her home, Twin Oaks of Maryhill on Friday, February 13th, 2015 in her 99th year. Clara grew up on the family farm outside Winterbourne. She also worked for many years at Merchants Printing doing bindery work. Clara enjoyed oil painting and decorating wedding cakes, travelling and helping out anyone in need of assistance. She also enjoyed visiting shut ins, sharing her cheery outlook on life. When the farm was sold in 1973, Clara moved to Maryhill with her sister Edith and brother Clarence. She was a member of St. Boniface RC Church and the C.W.L. and volunteered at her Church, singing in the choir and doing altar preparations and flowers with her sister Edith. She also volunteered at Twin Oaks, making numerous baby quilts for her extended family and Birthright and was a member of Right to Life and Meals on Wheels. She is survived by her brother Charles "Carl" and his wife Therese of Kitchener. She is loved and will be missed by her many nieces and nephews. She is a special "Grandma" to Melanie, Matt and Meghan. She was predeceased by her parents, Charles and Edith (Keiffer) Schuett, her brothers Clarence and Wilbert (Margaret) and her sisters Marie Grundy (Ted), Loretta Daub (Joseph), Anna Zettel (Hugo) and Edith Schuett. Her family would like to thank all the staff at Countryside Retirement and Twin Oaks of Maryhill for the loving compassionate care given to Clara.

      Clara's family received relatives and friends at the Henry Walser Funeral Home, 507 Frederick Street, Kitchener, 519-749-8467 on Monday from 2 - 4 and 7 - 9 pm with parish prayers at 3 pm.
