I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of such a dear man. I've known Clint for many, many years, and have so many fond memories of him, especially the plays at Faith Bible Church. We had such a good time planning, practicing, singing, acting, and finally performing for the church members and guests. Clint's smile and helpful spirit made each one a fun experience. Now he's face-to-face with the King of Kings, and knowing that can bring such joy in the difficult days ahead. Much love to you all.
