Members of the Coweta County Commission during the May 5 meeting surrounded Clara Coleman Bates (seated in green) and a few of the members of her family after proclaiming May 20 as Miss Clara Day in Coweta County in celebration of her 104th birthday. A lifelong Coweta resident with four daughters, 10 grandchildren, 15 great-grandchildren and 17 great-great-grandchildren, Miss Clara attributed the blessings she has received during her life to God’s love and mercy.
