elevated q56Nw Obituary
On Saturday, October 1st, in her 92nd year, Clara (“Clare”) passed away peacefully at Markham Stouffville Hospital surrounded by her children. She is predeceased by her husband of 69 years, Jack Alcamo. She will be greatly missed by her son Bill (Linda), her daughters Joanne (Bob), and Rose; grandchildren, Melissa (Gray), Jason, Jennifer, and Rebecca (Alex); step-grandchildren Tyler, Tim, Kaitlyn (Martin), Brendan, Connor (Breanna), Thomas, and Ryan as well as her great-grandchildren, Xander, Scarlett, Sofia, Nicolas, and Jude. Clare had a great love of family:  she was a devoted wife and mother, and a dear friend to her sisters.  For those who knew Clare personally and professionally, she will forever be remembered as elegant and kind.  Alongside her husband Jack, Clare successfully ran J.A. Modes, ladies wear stores located in Toronto and Brampton.  “Mrs. A” continued to work in fashion retail until her retirement, maintaining her exquisite fashion sense and flair for interior design in the years that followed.
