I was saddened to hear the news of Clyde's passing. He was a great umpire and an even better person. He would be at the games he umpired at least an hour early, sometimes before any of the teams playing. He umpired games I coached in the Philadelphia PAL (Police Athletic League) League in Fairmount Park, and also in the Catholic League. When a player made a mistake, especially in the PAL League with younger children, Clyde would often console that player, and instruct him on the proper way to make the play. He was a teacher as well as an umpire on the field. That's what separated him from everyone else. He was a true professional and gentleman! He will be especially missed this upcoming season. God Bless him and his entire family

Clyde as we knew him came into the Payton Family many years ago. We loved him and enjoyed his company each time we saw him. He was a pleasure to be around and we all will miss him dearly. To his wife Carol you have our deepest sympathy. Minerva, Emma, Faye and the entire Payton Family in Virginia

It isn't often that the players really remember an umpire long after their playing careers are over. Mike was an exception to that. We had a lot of fun together over the years. He will be missed in the local baseball community greatly.

I only knew Mike as an umpire for my team's Junior Legion baseball team. It was a pleasure having him do our games. He arrived with a smile, had a great attitude about the kids and the game, and handled himself with class and style. He will be sorely missed.
