Betty and family,
Do you remember me? We worked together for Dr. Anselm many years ago! I have fond memories of that time in my life and you were an important part of that memory!
Your Clarence was a good and gentle man, and I am glad to have met him!
Please accept my love and sincere sympathy. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers. May God’s Peace and Love be your in a special way.
Special hugs and Love, Nancy
Clarence was such a kind person. He was also a lot of fun to be around. I have a lot of good memories of him and will miss him very much. I’ll always remember him singing “Where oh where is Susie”. I’m glad he was my uncle.
I am so sorry to learn of Clarence’s passing. All the times I was around him, I never once saw him get mad. He was always so kind and patient towards everyone. I will always remember the pranks he pulled on Grandma Morgan. She loved every one of them. He could tell the best jokes and stories. He was a great Uncle to me while I was growing up.
