Clarice J. Blackwell

Dear Jim and family (Steve and Sandra) We were so very sad to read your recent note and learn of Clarices passing.She was my God-send in 1969 looking after our first child (Will) when I had to work.She loved him as though he were her very own and made this young mother feel so much better about leaving her new baby with a sitter. She was a wonderful and very special lady whom I shall always feel very close and indebted to.May God hold you all in his loving arms during this most difficult time. With much love and deepest sympathy, Susie and Bill Heritage and family

Jim, you and your family are certainly in our thoughts and prayers. If there is anything you need please let us know. I will miss those monthly phone calls to Clarice, and I will miss the sound of her voice, but the memories will last a life time. I am so thankful to have those memories and thankful that i have known you both. (Kaye Campbell and Allen)

My dearest Steve and Sandra: My prayers are with you during this saddest of times. Your mother will always have a warm spot in my heart! Love, Brenda Bingler Clark

Dear Steve & Family:
I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your mother. My thoughts and prayers are with your father and your family during this great loss. May God Bless and be with you all through this ordeal.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

"Daddy Jim", Steve and Sandra, words cannot describe how I feel losing "Mamma Clarice". May the Lord be with you all during this time of sorrow and help heal your pain. Always remember her with loving thoughts as I know I will. Thank you all for sharing her with the neighborhood children.

To Steve, Sandra and "Daddy" Jim, Thank You for sharing your Mother/Wife with us.

May the Lord's hand of compassion and love and his guiding light from above, shine down upon you & give you strength during this time of sorrow, may you find comfort in knowing that friends share in your loss.
Guy De Hooge & Family, Florence, SC

We are so very sorry to hear of your loss. I have so many wonderful memories of time spent at your home. We will be thinking of you in the days ahead and hope your memories will help see you through.

Dear Jim, Steve, and family,
I am saddened by your loss. I will pass on to you what my mother always said to me: We are not given to each other, but only lent. And while Clarice's work here is done, know that she is now safely enfolded in her Maker's arms. Her memory will remain with you and bring you comfort. Know that each of you is in my thoughts and prayers.
