Pushing Forward...21º

Clada (Clay-da) a combination of her fathers name Clay and her mothers name Ada...A very unique name and a unique lady...After Cliffs death she struggled on with help from family (3 daughters, 1 son,) friends and neighbors...She hired help to run the farming operation for a couple more years, until the lease ran out on the farm, she sold the equipment, bought a house in town with an apartment...For many years she lived in the apartment and rented the house...In later years, Clada's father passed away and Clada became a care giver for her mother...Now Clada moved into the house and her mother into the apartment...Clada's children and grandchildren were an important part of her life as well as her many friends...Over the years, I enjoyed occasional visits in her home, where she welcomed me and we reminisced about those days in the potato field...Although she passed on many years ago, I can still hear her laughter and remember her as a dear friend...Hugs To All...OWAV:)
