I was Clint´s freshman English teacher at Muskego High School. I was a colleague of his father, Harold. I have known Clint and his family for many years. So sorry for this loss! Such a caring and giving man!

So sorry to hear of Clint's passing. Pretty sure my daughters' college science majors were inspired by him.

May you rest in peace now my friend, you will be missed. It was my privilege to have met you and formed an early morning/golf friendship! My most sincere condolences to your family, friends and all that will miss you, Clint!

Mr. Bennett was a family favorite teacher, so much so one year we carved a pumpkin at Halloween to look like him! My favorite part of the year in the last couple of decades was when he would come in to city hall to pay his taxes and I would be able to chat with him for a bit. He always brought the coloring pages from Paris they handed out that year for me. He will be truly missed. So many great memories from my childhood! My condolences to the family and so many friends!

Mr. Bennett was my teacher and basketball coach in the late 80´s. He made a huge impact on so many of us. Many of us will remember as a favorite teacher or at least one of our favorites. What a legacy he left! My condolences to his wife, children and grandchildren. I can only imagine how wonderful he was to you all.

Clint, who else but you could have introduced us to the never-empty styrofoam cup of coffee and the strategy of free McDonald´s refills on a long road trip? Or, the art of winning "graciously" over your Mexican Train and Catch Phrase opponent(s)?
So much more to learn from you, but you are gone from us far too soon. Now, your presence lives on in so many who loved you: Karen, your children & grandchildren, relatives and friends. We all miss you enormously. Godspeed, Clint.

So sorry to hear of Clint´s passing. I met Clint on the golf course during early morning rounds at Mulberry in The Villages. Knowing he was from Wisconsin and since I am Canadian we would sometimes joke about the cold weather we were missing and thankful to be playing golf instead of shovelling snow. He was a good guy and will be missed.

I have known Clint for 50 years..he gave himself to others in love and friendship. He would always help you with anything. He once climbed up 20 feet at my house to unclog a gutter. We did travel to Alaska with me .to serve the science teachers with their science needs. It was very very special. I played softball with Clint for 25 years. Many city championships and tournament championships. He was a great friend. There is so much more I could write for a person of great character. May you rest in peace..my great friend....bob friedel

So grateful to Clint & Karen for introducing us to The Villages. Many fond memories of playing cards, sharing meals and conversation. We could never seem to beat Clint at cards but didn't mind because the twinkle in his eyes when he won was worth it! I will miss his sweet offers of soup and also the colored golf balls he collected on the course with me in mind. Always thinking of others and helping however he could. We will miss him but grateful that he has no more pain. God bless and our sincere condolences to Karen and the extended family.
