May the Grace of our Lord and Savior be with you always. My heart goes out to the family. Clarence reminded me so much of my husband and your brother. Clarence would drive you up here to see us every week or two when Tim was sick. He never said a word about leaving. He always waited for a word from you to let him know when you were ready. One time Tim was in surgery until 12 a.m. The two of you sat all night with us. When he came out of surgery and you were assured that he was going to recover, you left. That meant so much to me. I will NEVER forget it as long as I live.

The emotions felt in the loss of your husband can never be put into words. The feelings are indescribable, but I know that earth has no sorry that heaven cannot heal. I could not be with you due to my health, but my thoughts and prayers were there. May the Grace of our Lord and Savior be with you. I extend my deepest sympathy. Sis, Bea and Family
