I want to say to Clarence’s family I am deeply sorry for your loss. I knew Clarence since he became a driver for Werner Co. I was his trainer and during that time we became like brothers. And when he started driving on his own we stayed in touch everyday and saw each other on occasion at work. I just received the news of his death the other day. This is so upsetting to me. I lost a brother and a good friend.
Again my condolences,

To the family of Clarence Blanks,
My wife and I give our condolences. We just found out the bad news today. Clarence was not only a good friend but also a good person overall. I knew Clarence since I began my job at Werner driving trucks; about 5 years ago. Even after I went to a different company, we talk almost every day on the phone. Once again my wife and I are so sorry for you loss. If there is anything you need, don’t hesitate to contact us. My wife and I will miss Clarence dearly.

Clarence was a good father to me and a wonderful and caring grandfather to my sons. He saw me through some hard times in my life and was always there when I needed a shoulder to lean or cry on. I pray that he is at peace and that the family he left behind can celebrate the good memories they have of him.

To Sabarina, Shelle, Kyle (his children), Sharron and Serena (step-daughters)... he was your dad and now he is your memory. To the blended familes, which includes all the surviving members on all sides of the families, this is a time of sorrow for us all, and this is also a time, to say goodbye to our Clarence. He will always remain in our hearts. He has gone home to join his Grandmom - who raised him, his Mom, whom he adored, and his Uncle Bobby, who treated him like a son. He is among the Angels in Heaven, in the House of Our LORD. May we all find strength to get us through this time. I send this message from my heart, as we shared a friendship in the beginning. During our 12 years of marriage which had its good and bad times ending in divorce, discovered once again a true friendship within the last months of his life. Sending love to all...

To Sabrina, Shelle and Kyle (his children), Sharron and Serena(step-daughters) - you were his children and now he is your memory. Find a way to be strong during this time. Clarence and I were friends first, after 12 years of marriage - we divorced and then became friends at the end. The only regret is him leaving this earth so soon. But he is now sitting among the Angels and has joined his Grandmother who raised him, and his Mother, whom he adored, and Uncle Bobby who was there for guidance - in Heaven at the side of the FATHER whom we will all spend time with. GOD bless you all and our blended families...
