Peace to The Robinson Family;
Please accept my most heartfelt & deepest sympathy during your time of sadness. I'd known Clarence for over 40 years and found him to be a man among men. He was faithful, dedicated as wellas loyal to the House of Prayer faith and it's leaders, from past to present. He was very unique as a man, a person, a Grace Soldier of the Cross and even more as a human being. To love & appreciate Clarence was to know him as he was indeed indeed the epitome of the song God Can't Use Know Coward Soldier, he was a true soldier to end. I pray that he will find peace being rocked in the bosom of Abraham, for truly the works he has done will speak for him. May the God of grace who passes all human understanding, give you peace in the midst of your storm. God Bless.
Much love to All Always

Dear Randy and Tee
How blessed you were having Clarence Robinson for your father, he truly loved you. He was the most colorful person I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. His love for family, church and mankind made him stand taller than most men. He will always have a special place in so many hearts.
May his soul, and all the souls of the faithful departed though the mercy of god rest in peace.
