Clarice and I met while employed at General Accident many years ago. We enjoyed each other's company so much. She stood up for me at my wedding. While we have drifted apart by many miles, I have never forgotten her. She was a friend to all and a person one could go to for comfort in trying times. I truly loved her. Kenny, your Mom was a great person. I am so sorry over your loss.
