Clare Ann Mason, the daughter of Harley and Edna (Pummel) Reynolds, was born on December 11, 1942 in Marion, Iowa. She was a 1961 graduate of Marion High School and attended the nursing program at the University of Iowa. On April 8, 1967, Clare was united in marriage to Jerry Mason in Marion, Iowa. To this union three children were born, Robert, Richelle and Richard. Clare and Jerry lived in Barnes City before moving to Grinnell where she was a housewife and raised her children. Clare then worked at Grinnell Mutual for several years before moving to Monett, MO in 1983. She worked at Monett Manufacturing. Clare was a wonderful seamstress and made uniforms and flags for the Monett High School Marching Band, the Joplin High School Marching Band and the Missouri Southern State College Marching Band. In 2002, Jerry and Clare moved back to New Sharon to be closer to family. Clare enjoyed camping, cross stitching, knitting and collecting Thimbles. She also had a two pet Alligators, Ally and Gator.
