Harriett lived to age 93 and died peacefully during a celebration of life, held in her honor. She was born and raised in Michigan, met Clarence Niemeyer at Michigan state and they married in 1947. Later they migrated to California. Harriett and Clare built their own home on 1 1/12 acres in San Bernardino. They enjoyed a very loving life together and she spent a rewarding career as a school secretary. She particularly enjoyed camping with Clare all over the world and volunteered at Santa Clause Incorporated (who provided for families in need) for over 60 years. She was their longest living volunteer ever!
