February 3 1930-April 28 2011

Here, we celebrate the life of Clara Smale, otherwise known as "Dimpy." We tell some of her story, in photos and in words, each in our own way, and we invite you to add anything if you'd like to; (you should be able to do that directly, but if not, just send your posting to smale@msu.edu).
