Memorials can be made to the Family. Hubert loved his family, his wife, all of his children and friends. He was very passionate about Taekwondo, where he earned a Third Degree Black Belt. He enjoyed riding his Harley Davidson, winning many trophies for trick riding. He lived life to the fullest. Hubert appreciated travelling. He was a leader and never a follower; a very successful businessman with many talents in which he displayed throughout his adult life. He also enjoyed watching Westerns and Science Fiction movies. Hubert always protected his loved ones; he would do anything for us. We watched as he ascended to Heaven gracefully as a Dove. Although we lost a wonderful man who will be greatly missed, we know that he will always be with us in our hearts. Hubert is survived by daughters: Angela and Katrina; sons: Michael, Hubert, Torry, Antwan, Kevin, Elijah, and Theodore, also grandchildren and great-grandchildren; wife: Kathy Clinton; sisters: Minnie Hardy, Sylvia Wilson, Sarah (Robert) Ankum, Essie (Wilson) Thomas and Betty Ann Rogers.
