Not sure what to say?

I'm a bit late here, but when I used to live across the street as a kid, I´d often look out my bedroom window to see what Clyde was up to. If he was outside, I´d head over to say hello. Come summer, I´d buy tomatoes and corn from him. He was always smiling, generous, and pleasantly old-fashioned. For years I tried to find out what happened after the property changed hands, but all I ever knew was his first name.

I know my dad (Red) will be missing this dear friend. And I know I will miss seeing Clyde out by the side of the road with his tomatoes! Rest in Peace...

I knew clyde from the river. I would clean his fish for him so I could get crawdad bait, he thought that was great since I was a girl. We also brought him out sandwiches when Thelma would yell at him and tell him " dont come.back tell you have a fish " and boy he didn't. I think he kind of liked it anyway. Funny man we enjoyed him alot. We also enjoyed him at our moose lodge. He will be missed

Goodbye Clyde. A good friend and a fine person.I'm sorry I hadn't had time to find you these past few years.When I see you again we can buddy up kick butt

Clyde was such a great guy. He was always funny and always made you laugh with his dry sence of humor. I know he will be missed by his many friends and family. Good bye Clyde.
