Around 1979, I remember being caught up in Clive's show in middle school at Nora Springs, and not figuratively. He handed me a mime helium balloon during one of his segments and I 'mimed' that it was lifting me up, he pushed me down, i lifted up... before I knew it, he and I improvised at least three, 5 minute segments in front of my class, right there on his 'stage' on the gymnasium floor. A balloon flyer, a boxer, & something else...at one point we waltzed. He said to me under his breath, "we have to stop meeting like this." I'll never forget him.

Clive was a superb man of the theatre, and a joy to converse with.
He also did four splendid narrations for works I conducted at Drake.
We also shared the same birthday (though not the year), so that was
another factor of esteem for him. May he rest in peace.

Clive was such a special person. I have such very happy memories of Clive both as a friend and as a colleague at Bellairs Studio of Dance and Drama and Guildford School of Acting.
Clive was a much respected mentor to my late son, Danny encouraging his love of theatre.
Much love, Clive and happiness in the next stage of your journey.
