    Clare was born on a farm where now are the Eastwood Collegiate and Sunnyside Home. With his parents \endash Titus and Mary Ann (Detweller) Shantz \endash he attended First Mennonite then Stirling Avenue churches and was fully involved in each as Sunday school teacher, song leader, in male quartets, the Literary Society, Young People's Bible meetings, etc. In the early 1940s, Clare attended Ontario Mennonite Bible School.

    Nora was cook there, making meals for an average of 125 \endash 150 students: three meals a day, seven days a week. They were married in July 1945 and in September that year Clare joined Nora as a member of Erb Street. He was chosen by lot and ordained as deacon in 1948, serving until 1980, then was deacon emeritus until his death.In the 1950s Clare fell from a ladder, while working as a carpenter for J C Hallman, and severed his spinal column. After months of adjustment and rehabilitation, he continued as service manager at J C Hallman's until retirement. Some of Clare's many achievements \endash despite being restricted to a wheelchair \endash were getting a ramp built at Erb Street Church, and building trailers designed for his special needs so that he and Nora could travel.Nora's birthplace was on the farm situated on the north west corner of Columbia and Philip Streets in Waterloo. Her parents were Mennonite and Hattie (Lichty) Burkhart and the family attended Erb Street Mennonite Church from about 1922. There was a time at Erb Street when Sunday school pupils could choose their teacher: Nora moved with one class of teenage girls for nine years. The Sunshine Band Committee (later Girls' Club), Junior Charity Circle, the Beacon's WMSA (later WMSC Circle) and librarian were other leadership roles Nora took.In 1958, 1959 and 1960 Nora underwent many operations and treatment for cancer: one operation removed one eye and half of her upper jaw. She was told she would probably not live for another year.

    Erval married Nora Burkhart Jul 1945. Nora (daughter of Menno M. Burkhart and Hattie Z. Lichty) was born 22 Jun 1915, of, Kitchener, Waterloo Region, Ontario, Canada; died 16 Aug 2006, Cambridge, Waterloo Region, Ontario, Canada; was buried , Erb Street Mennonite Cemetery, Waterloo City, Waterloo Region, Ontario, Canada.
