Clara was born in Okarche on Aug. 15, 1935, to Fredrick and Clara (Heupel) Rott.

She was baptized and confirmed in the Christian faith.

She began working for Oklahoma Farm Bureau in Oklahoma City in 1953 and the next year married Eugene (Gene) Luber on April 17.

Clara continued working through 1976 when she and Gene opened Okarche Lawn and Garden.

In 2000, they moved to Divide, Colo.

Clara was an active member of her church, loved the mountains, but missed her family, so in 2012 they moved to Wichita, Kan.

She became a member at Holy Cross Lutheran Church, where she sometimes sang with the choir, attended Bible studies and actively participated in making Bibles for the blind.

Fred and Clara Rott, Clara’s parents, preceded her in death, as did her nine siblings, a sister-in-law and one grandchild.

Clara loved her family and is survived by husband Eugene; brother-in-law Darryl Luber; daughter Sherry Scheffer (Richard); grandchildren Shawna Scheffer, Jessica Hegeman, Scott Scheffer (Alison), Elizabeth Johnson and Anthony Scheffer (Leanne). She had seven great-grandchildren.
