HOYT, Arthur A. Arthur A. Hoyt (Porky to all who knew him). Age 74 past-away at Gladview Health Care Center on Monday, ( November 22, 2004). He was born on October 27, 1930 in Brooklyn NY, Son of the late John and Lucy (Baxter) Brown. Porky grew up in Clinton, and retired after 50 years from Finast (Edwards) in Clinton. He was the man you could always see walking down Main Street with his dog Buster, hanging out at Shell, and other spots in Clinton. He also was active in bowling and men's softball. He was a special man and will be greatly missed by his niece and family. He is survived by a brother Benjamin Brown of Edmond, OK, formerly of Clinton, and three sisters Dorothy Brown of Guilford and Clara Marsh and Linda Jeffcoat of South Carolina. His Beloved Goddaughter, Niece, and Caregiver Pollyanne Brown Hawkes, and her husband Albert of Edmond, OK. He is predeceased by a brother John Hoyt, a sister Lillian Petrosky, and nephews Stephen Brown and Sean Jeffcoat. A big thank you to the wonderful people at Meadowbrook in Centerbrook, Gladview of Old Saybrook, and to Alterra Assisted Living in Edmond, OK for all their help, caring and advice during this rough time. A private burial will be held in January at the convenience of the family. The Swan Funeral Home, 80 E. Main Street., Clinton are in charge of arrangements.

When we talk of our teen years and the part time wor we did we always mention Porky. The gang at the old First National will surely miss Porky. Those were the days..... Ron, Bob, Bert, Diane, Ed, Dick, Frankie, helen, Marge,and alll the rest of those who were touched by Porky.
