Jane and Joe, My parents , Dean and Lois Miller, counted Clair and Dorothy as friends. I remember them as part of that influential circle of adults we all knew growing up. Later, when I visited with them with my folks they were unfailingly polite and receptive to a young man and I appreciated that. They were successful and confident, and a great role model. Clair's work with the Historical Society was very well respected. Their passing together is strange but very fitting. We are sorry for your loss, but we appreciate having such people of character in our life and our community. Sincerely, Tom Miller and Family
