To Louise and the Spinner Family: Please accept our sincere condolences at the passing of Clara -- a woman we would consider an "essential worker" who demonstrated her love as she served so many members of the Body of Christ who shopped at Weis Market and who attended services in her church. Now, as she rests in the arms of Jesus Christ her Lord, we will be forever grateful for the precious memories Clara's life brings to mind. Mother Vivian G. Smith, Ronald & Deaconess Shirley (Smith) Yates and James and Linda (Smith) Collier
