Obituary of Clarice (Boone) Sloat Call
Dover-Foxcroft - Clarice (Boone) Sloat Call, 95, passed from mortality on Saturday, October 1, 2022, at the home of her daughter and son-in-law. She was born in Dover-Foxcroft on July 8, 1927, the oldest child of Richard Leon Boone, Sr., and Hope Margaret (Higgins) Boone.
She married Harley Frank Sloat on May 4, 1946, in Dover-Foxcroft. Harley and Clarice joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 1961. Their faith in the Savior, Jesus Christ, was paramount in their lives and shaped their decisions from that moment on. Harley died in 1986. Clarice later served a two-year church mission at the Washington Temple, Kensington, MD. She lost a second husband, Woodrow Call, after only 10 months of marriage, 1996.
Clarice was a wonderful mother of 4, grandmother of 11, great-grandmother of 47, and great-great-grandmother of 4. She was an outstanding cook, storyteller, and poet. She had an engaging sense of humor which kept her cheerful to the end. On her 91st birthday, her mantra was “91 and still having fun!”
