She is also survived by her brother, John D. Blossom, junior.

In addition, Clare volunteered at all of her children's schools: Franklin Elementary School, St. Matthew's Parish School, Marlborough School and Marymount High School. Clare's interests were wide-ranging. She was an avid reader and belonged to three book clubs, one of which is in Ephraim, Wisconsin, where she and Jim had a long-time summer home. Clare and Jim liked nothing better than spending time during the summer months in Sister Bay, Wisconsin, with their family and friends. When they had time, Clare and Jim enjoyed playing golf at the Los Angeles Country Club or sitting under their umbrella at the Beach Club in Santa Monica. They also belonged to the Ephraim Yacht Club in Wisconsin. A recent highlight was an amazing trip to Greece and Turkey. In addition to her volunteerism, Clare found great pleasure as a homemaker and hostess. Clare's passions were her family, friends, home and her garden. Her sense of style was legendary, and Clare always entertained both graciously and impeccably. Clare's entertaining talent was well known and celebrated. She will always be loved, admired and missed by her many friends but especially by her loving husband and family.
