My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family in this time of loss. I had the pleasure to work with Clarence off & on for 15 years or so. He was always fun to be around. I never got to meet his family but we shared many stories with each other about them. May God comfort you in knowing Clarence is in a better place now.

Clarence had a heart of gold. I had the pleasure of working with him for about 4 yrs and it was like I knew him forever. He touched everyone that he came in contact with and everyone loved him and his personality. When I moved to Charles Town in 07 I had no family here to help. Clarence volunteered and wouldn't accept any compensation for the labor or long drive. I never had the pleasure of meeting his family but we often talked about our families at work of and he talked about them with great pride. I know his family has lost a great father and husband and I pray that God grant you all rest and peace in your time of grief.
