Clara Schriver, 88, well-known waitress at O\’Donnell\’s Seafood Restaurant

From elevator operator to Avon, she held many jobs through the years. She was a well-known waitress at the Ivystone Inn and O¹Donnell¹s Seafood Restaurant, from where she retired in 1980. After retirement, Clare devoted her time to grandchildren, traveling the U.S. and taking courses in crafts. There wasn¹t a craft she couldn¹t master, a trip she¹d turn down or a story she wouldn¹t share along the way.

She remained active in numerous senior activities, including Senior lunches at Gloucester County College and 20 years of participation in aquatic classes at the Woodbury YMCA. Clara was an intelligent, eclectic and truly unique woman, who left family and friends with many memorable moments.

Predeceased by her husband, Charles D. Schriver, Sr., and daughter, June E., Clara is survived by her children: Carol D. Greenetz, Charles D. (Nancy), Joseph W. (Aileen), Paul R., Christine D. Strey and Victoria J. (Christine). She is also survived by her sister, Elsie Hibner; brother, Charles Kaufmann; 15 grandchildren; seven great-grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews.

A Celebration of Life will be personally announced by family.
