Constance Clarkson

Constance Carew Clarkson entered peacefully into the arms of her Savior on the afternoon of July 31, 2020. Connie was born to Lillian Clay Carew and Henry Grattan (Bob) Carew on July 22, 1929. Connie spent most of her youth in Corpus Christi where she graduated from Incarnate Word Academy in 1948 and attended Del Mar Junior College. Connie was an active member in her local Catholic Youth Organization (CYO). In fact, she and her Dad and brother Bob were walking to attend Mass when an acquaintance and his brother stopped to give them a lift to Church. Bob Clarkson was in the driver’s seat and drove right into Connie’s heart. Bob and Connie married at St. Theresa’s Catholic Church in 1950. They spent the last 35 years of their married life in San Antonio raising their eight children: Nancy (Dennis) Devlin, Pat (Sigrun) Clarkson, Tim (Olivia) Clarkson, Dennis (Sherry) Clarkson, Henry (Terry) Clarkson, Cindy (Bart) Bartels, Connie (Kevin) Gannon, and Lili (Todd RIP) Cunningham.
