Dearest Clothiaux family, especially Clara--

Miriam forwarded the death announcement to us, and I would like for you to know that all of you will be in our prayers that the Holy Spirit, the Comforter, will be in your hearts during this difficult time.

Dr. Clothiaux was a mentor and friend to my father, Thomas Rokoske, who earned his PhD under Dr. Clothiaux's tutelage in the early 1970's. My sympathy goes out to the entire Clothiaux family.

My heartfelt condolences to you during this time. Dr. C was an inspiration and we are all diminished by his loss.

Daer Mrs. Clothiaux,

I am very saddened to hear of your husbands death. He was my favorite physics instructor. I am very grateful he agreed to serve on my doctoral committee in 2004. He will be sorely missed.

Dear Mrs. Clothiaux,
I was so sad to hear of Dr. Clothiaux's passing. My son had him as his Physics Honors Instructor and said he was one of the best professors he had ever had. Please know that many heartfelt prayers are being said for you and your family.

Dr. Clothiaux,

I just wanted to extend my condolences and my appreciation for all you did for me in school to help keep me focused on science and lead me to find myself in engineering!
