Clara M. Young

February 4, 1941 - January 27, 2015

Clara M. Young, 73 of Gloversville, NY passed away peacefully with her family by her side on January 27, 2015 at the Fulton Nursing Center after a very long but courageous battle with COPD. Born at home in Gloversville on February 4, 1941, she was the daughter of the late Felix Marshall and Eleanor Green. Clara attended Gloversville schools and was employed for many years as a Nurse’s Aide at various local nursing facilities and later on as a private duty aide. Her caring nature and a strong work ethic helped her excel at this, as she was loved by all of the people she cared for and worked with. She was a lifelong avid fan of professional wrestling and would spend many hours each week vigorously cheering on her favorites. She also loved traditional country music with George Jones being her favorite. Clara also skillfully played many Pogo games right up until her last hospitalization. Puzzle books and scratch off tickets were always appreciated by her as gifts. Her family always came first with Clara and she went out of her way to ensure her children and grandchildren always knew that she cared deeply about them. Birthdays, anniversaries and all other special times were always met with cards, gifts, phone calls and lots of love. She is survived by her brother Kenneth Lake, her sister Margaret (Jerry) Conine, her sons, Donald (Jennifer) and Robert. Her grandchildren, Aoife (Otto) Hammersmith, Sandy(Matt) Lill, Andrew and Justin Young and her great-grandson Thor Hammersmith along with several nieces and nephews. In addition to her parents, Clara is pre-deceased by her sisters, Patricia and Grace, three daughters, Deborah, Cindy and Lori and two sons, Cheyenne and Jeffrey. Family and friends are invited to visit on Monday, February 2, 2015 from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Gloversville Funeral Service, 4 Second Ave., Gloversville where a funeral service will be held on Tuesday, February 3, 2015 at 11 a.m. Burial will be held in the spring in Prospect Hill Cemetery, Gloversville.
