Not sure what to say?

Dear Partin Family, I am so sorry to hear of Clyde's passing. I worked with him at Emory 20 years ago and his wit and wisdom are still influential to me today. He was well loved by all who knew him. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. Sincerely, Beth Emeterio

I will always remember Doc from the Braves games and the stickball contests we played in. I followed Doc as one of the Braves official scorers and will always remember him always ready to answer a question, but never force his opinion.

He will be missed by many,

Rest In Peace my friend.

Dear Clyde and family:

We all admired your special relationship with your dad, Clyde.

You are all in our thoughts and prayers at this sad time,


Mike, Jill, Caitlin and Emmy Cooper

Doc was a humble man whose only concern was doing for others. You would never know of his accomplishments if you talked just to him. As a Braves employee, he was an MVP. As a mentor to Emory freshmen, he was a positive influence on countless young men and women, including my stepson. It was a privilege to know him. Betty, our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Doc gave the gift of friendship; he will be missed.


We are sorry to hear about your loss, we know how special Clyde Sr was to all of you.

We will all miss "#4", but be assured, Heaven just became a brighter place, and I bet Doc already has gotten a hit off of Warren Spahn on that Field of Dreams. Betty, to you and all your family, may your extremely fond memories bring peace and comfort.

I worked with "Doc" at Fulton County Stadium with the Diamondvision crew. Just remember what a nice guy he was....always a gentleman. Reading his obituary, I know he lived a long, wonderful and fulfilling life. I'll say a prayer for Doc and his family tonight.
