Clare Ehrhard Guthrie passed away on November 2, 2011 at the age of 73. She was born and remained a lifelong resident of Algiers, LA. She was the daughter of the late Sidney Ehrhard, Sr. and Clara Tingstrom Ehrhard. She was also preceded in death by her brother Frank Ehrhard. She is survived by her husband, Richard Guthrie, Sr., of 52 years, her brother Sidney Ehrhard, her two children; Dr. Richard Daniel Guthrie, Jr. and Michelle Clare Guthrie-Brown, her daughter in laws Joan Guthrie and Robin Guthrie-Brown, her seven grandchildren; Richard Guthrie III, Elizabeth Tucker, Andrew Guthrie, Timothy Guthrie, Devin Guthrie- Brown, Alexandra Guthrie-Brown and the late Regin Guthrie-Brown, also her three great grandchildren; Richard Guthrie IV, Kaylee Guthrie, and Charles Tucker. Clare spent her life doing the most meaningful job one can do; loving her family in an amazingly selfless manner. Clare enjoyed spending her spare time at the movies or playing video poker. That being said her Grandchildren still remained her “hobby” of choice. I would like to thank Hospice Compassus for all their love and support they gave to our mother and family during this difficult time.
