I think back of all the great times we had in High School. I went to your visitation but could not find a parking spot. That should tell everyone how many friends and what kind of person you were.

I was so sorry to hear about the loss of Clarence. My sister, brother and I went to school with him and he was friends with my brother Eric Rizzardi. He was always well mannered and a likeable person. My prayers go out to his family and friends during this time of sorrow.

Henley Children, I know your father and mother from our Lafayette HS days. Although we drifted apart over time, I am lucky to have called him a friend. He is today what he was then, A fun loving, BIG hearted person who cared for others. My family's thoughts and prayers will be with you and your mother through these difficult times.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Clarence was a fantastic guy. He did the steel work for me when we were building Coba Cocina restaurant. He went out of his way to solve problems, offer ideas and give a big laugh to us. Just a wonderful person who will be missed!
