Clarence Boshears, 88, previously of Springfield, passed away on Saturday, Feb. 6th, at Beehive Homes in Scottsburg, IN. He was born on Nov. 22, 1932, in LaFollette, the son of the late Millard and Bertha (Violet) Boshears.

Clarence was a retired supervisor for the trucking department at I-Supply in Springfield, Ohio, and served during the Korean War as a Corporal in the U.S. Army. He loved fishing and had participated in numerous bass fishing competitions.
