“In loving memory of Clare Josephine Ross Tobin. I first met Clare in the 1990's along many like-minded trails and causes. She was a true civic wonder, election voter rights activist, friend to all, and petition passer extraordinaire—a true American. She will be so missed but she left the world a better place.
