Fennell family, I am so sorry to hear about the lost of Clem. When I heard about his illness several years ago, it really tore me up. He was so kind, caring and nice to me. My deepest sympathies.

I regret that we have been out of the area for medical treatment. Also in now living on OH side of the River, we do not get obituaries often from KY.
Vicky, I truly regret in not being able to attend the funeral. While President of NKU, I became friends with the Fennell family and came to love and respect them. Your husband certainly carried on the tradition and had enormous community respect. In having gone through a similar experience of a very ill spouse and her demise, I can identify with your sense of loss and bereavement. Please accept my deepest condolences. God bless,
Leon Boothe, President Emeritus NKU

It was an honor to take care of Clem while working at Elmcroft. Although I met him when he no longer talked, it was easy for Clem to become my favorite by his infectious smile and laughter. I'll never forget the times you would throw the ball back and forth with me, or walk George around the unit. You have impacted my life in such a way that I will never forget. Prayers to you and your family always.

I will deeply miss our discussions weekly after Highlands Football game. You were always one of favorite, toughest, most humble football players I had encountered during my years. I will miss your great smile and kindness. You were a role model for all!

As a former football player , I will miss our weekly discussions about Highlands High School 's Friday night football games. I will miss our football stories and your great smile! You were one of a kind. You will be sorely missed but will live on in my heart forever! You are one of the most humble , toughest, kind hearted football players I have encountered.
Was a pleasure to know you.
