- Clara Seewer Jaggi. Born April 10 1895, died December 8, 1997. "God knew you were suffering; each hill was hard to climb. In tears we saw you suffering, we saw you fade away. Then He gently closed your weary eyes and took you on that day. God saw you were getting tired and put his arms around you and whispered "Peace be unto you." God has you in his keeping; we have you in our hearts. Your memory is our keepsake and with that we'll never part. It broke our hearts to see you go, but, Mom, you did not go alone for part of us went with you the day God called you home." Mom was born in Toone, Switzerland to Christian and Anna Nydegger Seewer on April 10, 1895. At the age of 6 in 1901, she came to America with a Mormon missionary and was joined in 1906 by her family.
