CLARA LARSON
Funeral is pending in Pueblo, Colorado for Clara Larson who died Monday in San Jose at the age of 100.
She was born October 11, 1877 in Dalsland, Sweden, and grew up on a farm there with nine brothers and sisters.
She came to this country as a young woman and was married to another native of Sweden, Charles A. Larson who died in 1935.
Mrs. Larson lived many years in Pueblo before moving to Novato 36 years ago to live with her son, Vernon. She moved to San Jose about two months ago.
Besides her son she is survived by a daughter, Agnes V. Litz, of San Jose; a brother, Oskar Anderson of Sweden; five grandchildren, ten great-grandchildren and two great-great-grandchildren.
Local arrangements were handled by the Willow Glenn Chapel, of San Jose.
