I'll miss his stories, like when he said a shot a deer that was so far away, he had to buy an out of state license to tag it. Great sense of humor.

I worked with Clyde many years at Armco. He was smart, funny, friendly, and always a joy to be around. He was tireless in the attempt to organize a union with the affiliation of the United Steel Workers. Sincere condolences to all his loved ones.
