• Recently Claremont suffered the loss of two wonderful residents due to relocation.  Not only did they pack their bags but they took their house with them as well.  Verl and Mary Cutler are now living in Aberdeen.  Their new address is 824 Cutler Rd No,  Aberdeen SD 57401.  They were such assets to our community and they are missed a great deal. They still drop in for visits which makes their absence a bit more bearable.
