Mary Yuhasz Clement passed away at her Covington home on Saturday, December 24, 
2011. She was born January 3, 1927 into the Hungarian Settlement near 
Springfield, LA to the late Joseph and Veronica (Vera) Yuhasz.

The beloved wife of the late Simon Edgar Clement for 62 years, she is survived 
by two sons, Robert Clement, Denis Clement and his wife Diane; six 
grandchildren: Christopher and Jonathan Clement, Marcel and Maurice Martin, 
Tiffany and Paige Clement; her great-grandchildren and her best friend Marlene 
Wade. She was preceded in death by her daughter, Gloria Jean Martin and husband 
James P. Martin; five brothers: John, Steve, Paul, Joe and Alex Yuhasz and two 
sisters, Helen Tuger and Irene Troyan.

Growing up the daughter of a farmer and butcher, she learned at an early age 
the value of hard work. Those who knew her would gladly testify to her being an 
experienced cook. She met Simon in a strawberry patch and they were married on 
September 27, 1945. She was baptized later as a Jehovah’s Witness and her 
example as a wife led Simon to change his life as well. They lived to enjoy 62 
years of marriage until his death in 2008.

Relatives and friends of the family are invited to attend the funeral services 
at 11:00 AM on Thursday, December 29, 2011 at E.J. Fielding Funeral Home, 2260 
W. 21st. Ave., Covington, LA 70433.

A wake is scheduled for Wednesday, December 28, 2011 from 6-9:00 PM with 
visiting hours beginning Thursday at 9:00 AM.
