I remember being in your company when I was much younger especially in the Central Square area and at the house on Tremont. We'll miss you and God Bless and keep you.
Love from the Alleyne family, Denise.

Mr. Clarke,
Sir, I didn't know you but I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the U.S. Army during WW II and for being a member of the Greatest Generation. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
