Hailing from Italy, Clara embarked on a transatlantic journey in 1955 to unite with her betrothed, Natalino Morosin.
The couple made their home in Seymour, where they nurtured a family of four: Anna, Enzo, Linda, and Leanne. Tragically, Clara bid farewell to her beloved Natalino three years ago.
Renowned for her unwavering dedication to work, Clara served at several Seymour establishments throughout the years.
Notably, she catered to countless travellers at the Seymour Railway Station refreshment rooms and juggled her duties at Pinky’s Roadhouse while caring for her expanding family.

In her golden years, Clara has been an active member of the Seymour Senior Citizens committee and relishes in the spirited competition of carpet bowls.
Her brood now encompasses four children, ten grandchildren, and two great-grandchildren, each a source of immense pride for Clara.
Regrettably, her son Enzo and his kids, along with granddaughter Natalie and her kin, could not join the luncheon, but conveyed their warmest regards.
