Clarisse & EJ's Family

E.J. found a box of old pictures and he came across this one taken in May of 2002 of me (the big girl) and my friend Eileen Real. She worked with me as my Youth Program Aide and we sure made a wonderful team helping at risk teenagers become employable through the Federally funded J.T.P.A. Summer Youth Employment Program of Tuolumne County back in the 1990's. She passed away about a year and a half later from Hepatitis C. I loved her very much and I still miss her very much and this was one of her "good days".
