Obituary of Clara Paula Spoleti

Clara P. Spoleti, aged 70, of Valatie, NY, passed away peacefully at Barnwell Nursing Home on Thursday, February 22, 2024. Born on August 14, 1953, in Brooklyn, NY, she later moved to Queens where she spent most of her life. Clara was the daughter of the late Guistino and June Spoleti. Her brother Paul also predeceased her. A fun-loving person with a quick wit and sharp mind, Clara was a hippie girl with a distinctive sense of style. She will be remembered fondly by her nephews Paul and Joseph, along with their families, and her sister-in-law Mary. Clara will be greatly missed. Despite life's challenges, Clara always managed to stay positive and strong. Her deep love for animals was evident during her time in Queens, where she cared for many stray cats. She diligently fed them twice a day and helped catch them for spaying. Her dedication to these animals persisted through all kinds of weather. Rest easy, Clara. There will be no calling hours. Arrangements are with the Raymond E. Bond Funeral Home, Valatie, NY.
