Christine (Christi) Jo Clare 

Cremation Center of Kansas City

The Kansas City Royals lost their biggest fan on February 6, 2022, as Christine (Christi) Jo Clare left this world to be with our Lord in Heaven.  Christi was born December 7, 1960, in Lincoln, Nebraska, Daughter of Thomas J. Clare Jr, and Shirley (Dickson) Clare/Stockton.  She was preceded in death by her brother, Michael Clare, father Thomas J. Clare Jr, and her grandparents.  She leaves behind daughter Natalie, (Basem) Saradih, mother, Shirley R. Stockton; brother, Martin (Barbara) Clare; sister, Nicole Clare; brother, Thomas, (Barbara) Clare and grandchildren: Jason, Ameera, Amaya, Malik and several nieces and nephews.  Christi graduated from Shawnee Mission North High School with honors and attended Johnson County Community College. She worked in the banking and real estate industry for over 30 years.  Christi loved to read and had many book collections. Her favorite author was Sue Grafton.  Christi was an ardent supporter and lifelong Royals fan. One of her happiest moments was when the Royals won their first World Series in 1985. Christi was there for game 7 in the stands cheering them on to Victory! 30 years later she was with her friends watching her beloved Boys in Blue win the World Series again against the Mets in 2015. Christi loved to travel. Starting at 19 with her lifelong friend, Devin, they made their first trip to NYC and Washington DC. That was just the beginning. They, along with their friend Marla, traveled all over the country including more trips to NYC, Washington DC, Denver, St Louis, The Grand Canyon and Cozumel, Mexico. She further made more trips with her daughter Natalie and nephew Nick to Colorado, Florida, Nebraska, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Tennessee and Washington, DC. She gave them an education through travel because that was important to her.   While Christi loved to travel, she loved Kansas City and all it had to offer, she enjoyed the World War I Memorial, Loose Park, Kaufman Stadium, Union Station and her personal favorite, Arthur Bryant’s Barbeque. Christi loved scrapbooking and card making, that was often considered therapy with her friends. In her opinion, there was nothing more fun than to get a card or letter in the mail that someone took the time to write.   She was a loyal and devoted friend. She was a daughter, sister, mother, grandmother, and aunt. When the grandchildren arrived, it changed her world. They were very special to her.   Christi was a longtime member of Heartland Community Church in Olathe. She was devoted to the Church. She was passionate for working for the Heartland “Gifts from the heart”. She found joy in helping those most in need.  Christi also volunteered at the Johnson County Battered Women’s Shelter for many years. Incredibly, she started donating blood regularly at 19 years of age and continued this for 41 years!  The family offers its heartfelt thanks to Dr. J. Singh and staff at Research Medical Hospital for the kind and compassionate care given to Christi the last 5 years.     From her Facebook page on her last birthday: "I say every year, with all sincerity, I have everything I need, and some of the things I want. My treasures though are the relationships I have formed with you. They sustain me, give me hope, and a lot to live for. Thank you for being a part of my life.  With love, Christi Service A celebration of life will be held at 1. 00pm on Saturday, March 12, 2022, at Heartland Community Church in Olathe, KS. (In the dock) The address is 12175 S Strang Line Road, Olathe, KS, 66062  Kansas City Royals attire/Royal Blue can be worn and is appropriate. There will be a reception immediately following the service. The burial will be a private ceremony at a later date. Memorial Contributions In lieu of flowers, please send any gifts to the Heartland “Compassion Fund” or the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network for research. If you put in the memo line “Gifts from the Heart”, those funds will go to that program. https://heartlandchurch. ccbchurch. com/goto/giving https://secure. pancan. org/site/Donation2?df_id=2681&mfc_pref=T&2681. donation=form1
