Clara Ann (Rogen) Webb was born on July 11, 1929 the daughter of Albert and Helga (Teslow) Rogen in Decorah, IA. She graduated from Decorah High School in 1946. After graduating, Clara worked for Northwestern Bell Telephone Company. Clara married Bernard Webb on November 4, 1948 and together they had four children: Mike, Linda, Mark and Lisa. They were married for sixty-two years before Bernard’s passing in 2011. Clara supported Bernard’s business “Webb Construction” for many years as the bookkeeper. She also kept books for St. Benedict Cemetery in Decorah for thirty-three years. She was on the planning committee for the class of 1946 reunions for many years as well as being a lifetime member of the VFW Auxiliary. Clara loved playing cards, especially euchre. She was 100% Norwegian and taught several family members how to make Lefse and Krumkake. It was a family tradition to have Clara’s Lefse at Thanksgiving and Christmas. Clara and Bernard enjoyed their time at “the river” in Harpers Ferry for many years fishing and hosting family gatherings. She was a faithful wife and a great mother.
