Dear Clarence, Pam & family,
I was deeply saddened to read in the GR Press of the passing of your dear father. Your Mom & Dad were just a great, loving couple. I am so honored to have known them.

I think of you often and miss seeing you all.

My heart goes out to the family in your loss.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of sorrow. Know he will be missed by many and our memories go back a long way.
