Discrepancy with information I have in the records.
Burial:
3-14-96 I visited Ivy Lawn Cemetery in Ventura,Calif. to visit my grandmother's grave (Edna Law) and William Matthews grave. I went through the records at the office there at the cemetery. I was amazed when they told me that Clement's ashes were buried in Edna's grave. I knew that Richard's ashes were there but I had no idea that Clements ashes had been flown out to California. My father had never told me.

Josephine was married before marriage to Clement Law and had some children by first husband. Veronica said
Josephine Lucia married her father and later divorced him and took back her Lucia name. But she still took care of him...He was in a home for awhile and she faithfully went and visited him. She brought him back to her home, took care of him till he died in hospital. He had to have leg amputated due to diabeties. Veronica signed some papers at hospital...
Robert Near sang the Lords prayer at his funeral....Veronica said 10/4/00
Possible that this is Josephine....She took back her Lucia name after divorce from Clement Law....
