It is with much sadness that I express my deepest sympathy, to Pat and her family, in the loss of their loved one, Clint. I met him during the time Pat and I worked together, at TA Brown Elememtary. Their two sons attended Brown. It was always such a pleasure, seeing Clint with his smiling face, his words of kindness, and his warm personality. May God wrap His arms around the family, and give them strength to make it through the difficult days ahead, and may the cherished memories of Clint, live in their hearts forever.

I'm stunned by Clint's passing. I'll miss chatting with my neighbor very much as will my wife and kids. Clint was always happy and easy-going; a great guy to be around. My kids loved updating him on things they felt were important. We traded duties dragging eachother's trashcans in from the street and mowing our shared side-yard. I'd tease him about going bicycling with me - I even offered to tow him in the trailer! I will miss him very much.

Pat, Steven, and Jeff, I'm at a loss for words. I'm so sorry. Truly.

I remember Clint from the years we shared a Sunday School class at KLCC. I feel fortunate to have been able to see the deep love so obvious between Clint & Pat, and for their sons. May the knowledge that you will someday all be together again give you some measure of comfort. Your family remains in our thoughts and prayers.

I worked with Clint for almost a decade and found him to be a kind, lovable, and gentle soul. I am so sorry that we lost him before he could enjoy the long benefits of retirement. We talked about it so often when we worked together. His passing is a great loss to many of us. But now he is in a better place until we meet him again. I give my love, prayers and sympathy to his family and those he left behind. I will miss him .

It was such a pleasure to work with Clint at CPA, he was such a "Gentlemen" to his wife Pat and family members,"May the Peace of God's Hands Wrap His Loving Arms" around all of you during this time of bereavement and such a great loss of life.

Respectfully yours,
Cynthia M. Jeanmarie
