Not sure what to say?

Harold was an outstanding justice but more importantly, he was an outstanding person and friend. A life well lived.

With our deepest sympathy. We have wonderful memories of Harold and Nora. Sincerely spence and diane Connerat of savannah and now lakemont, ga

I just saw where Harold passed away. He was bit tii far behind his friend Mary Heard who passed the 18th of February. They went to school together and I attended several of the reunions with Mama until last year when she was not able to go. The world will be a sadder place. He was a wonderful person and a good friend!

Hal and Beth,
I'm sorry for not responding sooner. I just found out about your dad. He was a wonderful man! He was definately one of my favorite patient's at Philip's office all those years ago. You will be in my prayers as well as your mom and sister.

Good Man...Good Memories. Since his passing~I have been thinking about what Harold Clarke meant to me and my family. My auntie Annie Ruth Goodson Brantley worked for the Clarke family for most of her adult life. We use to go up to the Clarke's big house and play. As kids, we always got cookies and tea cakes and some little surprise to take home. Nora would always get us atleast one new dress for school each year. Harold was the first domestic employer to pay into a pension and social security...

Justice Clarke was a true Southern Gentleman. In the early 70's, I had the opportunity to work at Clarke, Haygood, & Lynch one summer and I have wonderful memories of Justice Clarke.

May the entire Clarke family remember all the great memories. I also remember how Nora was the best story-teller ever of memories.

May God's Grace wrap all of you in peace.

Our sincere sympathy
