August 07, 2013

The Klare S. Sunderland Memorial Golf Tournament celebrates the memory and legacy of a man known for his generosity to countless people and charitable organizations. Born 14 August 1934, he was raised in McVeytown, PA and spent most of his adult life in the Harrisburg area. He was a son of the late Steward and Sara Alice “Dolly” (Moore) Sunderland and passed away in his home on the 6th of January 2013 at the age of 78.

Klare graduated from McVeytown High School in 1952 and Juniata College in 1956. He was president of his high school and college senior classes. Klare was a special and charismatic individual and a born entrepreneur. During his lifetime he bought and sold over 17 automobile dealerships and at the time of his death was president of the Sun Motor Cars Automotive Group in Mechanicsburg, PA and the Orland Park Mercedes-Benz and BMW dealerships in Orland Park, IL.

As devoted family man, Klare enjoyed spending time with his children and grandchildren, attending sporting and musical events, and encouraging a spirit of philanthropy and generosity. He also enjoyed sharing his cabin in Clearfield County with family and friends as well as hunting in Montana.

In recognition of his accomplishments and honor his personal investment in the health and well being of those in need, World Surgical Foundation presents the Klare S. Sunderland Memorial Golf Classic on 16 September 2013 celebrating a commitment to global, sustainable healthcare.
