Bonnie,Debbie and families,
As sad as it is in Uncle Jack's passing, I believe that he is having a good time meeting up with all of his family again.I guess I will always remember him as the Ice Cream Man of my childhood.He always brought ice cream home from Meadow Gold where he worked to grandma's when I stayed there.I just want you to know that you all and him are in our prayers. Sincerely, Nieces Betty Harlan and Mary (Gene) Green.

Bonnie, our thoughts and prayers are with you and the family. Clarence was such a sweet and kind man and we were priviledged to have known him. As you and the family mourn his loss, know that you are not alone. What a blessing it is to know that the God of all comfort and peace is watching over you and holding you in His arms.
