Fannie was a live wire! I knew her and Bob, even before they were married. It was a pleasure to have known them both. She was always "on the go", and she lived a great, fun-filled life. My condolences to Bob's family and to Fannie's.

I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Fannie. She was our next door neighbor for many years on Buffalo Street back in the 50's and 60's. Many fond memories of her and her family and the friendship she shared with my parents. Sincere condolences to Diane, Ricky, and other family members during this time of sadness. Jan Mulder Ellender

I was always happy that my father, Bob Clem, had found someone to dance, play golf and just share life with. I was so grateful for all the loving care she gave my father during his illness. My condolences to her family.

Fannie was a great person - she was a loving wife to my father & made his life enjoyable. I remember a time we played golf and she outdrove me on every single hole. She was always full of life and I was shocked when I got the news - I thought she would live forever. My son, Travis, told me last night that he always remembers her as his grandmother from Texas.

What a lady! She was one of a kind. I loved playing golf with her. She always had a new joke to share with us.
