Clara was born January 18, 1940, in Shreveport, Louisiana to Mac Roe Singer and Mary Lizer Adams. She went to be with the Lord on June 8, 2022.

Clara graduated from Winterville High School in North Carolina. She enlisted in the United States Air Force in 1958. She trained as a personnel specialist at Lackland Air Force Base, Texas. Clara married William W. Replogle in 1960. While he was stationed in Okinawa, Japan, she taught English to the local children. Later, Clara served five years in the Louisiana Army National Guard. After her daughter was born, she spent most of her career as a Licensed Practical Nurse. She was a faithful member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints since 1978. Clara enjoyed teaching different age groups in Primary (Sunday school). In 1990, she was determined to provide a safe high school learning environment for her daughter, so she found work in Colorado, and bravely relocated them from Louisiana.

Clara is preceded in death by her parents; stepfather, James Ambrose; sisters, Gladys, Irene, and Bertha. She is survived by her daughter, Julie (Replogle) Heise and husband, David; grandchildren, Adriane Replogle, Michael Cheek; and brother Grady Singer.
