- Carol Klar
- Retired teacher
Carol Klar began her long teaching career as a 4th-grade teacher but later became a science teacher at PS 48 in Hunts Point, the Bronx. She retired in 2003.
Carol died on Dec. 27 of complications of Alzheimer’s disease. She was 81.
“My mother was a proud union member who stood with her chapter leader to help ensure her colleagues were treated well and fairly,” said her daughter, Jill Post. She described Klar as a “quick wit and a great and loyal friend, mother and wife.”
Klar loved games, notably mahjong and canasta and, after retirement, she took up bridge.
She is survived by her husband of 60 years, Michael Klar; her daughters, Debbie, Melissa and Jill and their husbands; and seven grandchildren.
