Not sure what to say?

Coach Cleverly was a great coach and teacher while at Clearfield High School. He was our first baseball coach and our first JV basketball coach. He knew how to relate to young people. I was priviledged to have been coached by him. My sympathy to the family.

Dear Cleverly Family,

I was saddened to hear of Coach Cleverly's passing. Remembering Coach Cleverly brought back fond memories. One that I will always remember and I share often when working with young men is when he pulled me into his office during basketball tryouts when I was a junior.

Dear Connie and family,
I was saddened to hear that Jim had passed away. I spent the summer in Utah between my Junior and Senior years in high school and Jim hired me to work for him. I thoroughly enjoyed the work and his company as it was only the two of us working together almost every day that summer. I remember spending the night at the Cleverly's one particular night and was supposed to work with Jim the next day. However, enjoying my new found freedoms, I stayed up till 4 am....

To the Cleverly Family:
We were sad to here the passing of Coach Cleverly. Very few men have the impact on young people like your husband and father did with his time here on the earth. Jim expressed his love through his sports. He was a master of teaching the game of life. His legacy will live on through his former students and wonderful family by living the concepts that he taught them. Our hearts go out to you for the loss of this great man,. We love your family.

Dear Connie and Family,

We have many fond memories of Jim and your family growing up together as friends and neighbors here in Woods Cross. Our thoughts and prayers are with each of you. May your memories bring you comfort and peace.

Love,
