Dennis M. Clare Sr.

We are all blessed to have known Dennis Clare . A loving and a devoted husband , a very loving and a well providing father . A great grandfather and a wonderful lawyer . His sense of humor and dedication to justice was a disarming weapon . His gift for courtroom oratory and a knack for coining memorable phrases . Dennis was a bright addition to the pantheon of best known American barristers . The clients Dennis cared about the most were the immigrants nobody knows . I will miss you my friend .

My sincere condolences to the entire Clare family.
How blessed you were for so many years, and how priviledged was I to have known Dennis since his arrival at Belmont Abbey College back in the early sixties.
We immediately bonded, along with guys like Joe McDermott, Bernie ( "Redzo" ) Brennan, "Mac" McLoughlin, Sam O'Conner, Bill Dockery And a slew of other characters. As the song goes, "The laughs we shared will echo thru the years" !!! Dennis was truly an "Abbey Gentleman", a wonderful friend who lived a full and successful life. May he continue that journey as he moves on to a new world. Rest in Peace, my friend !!
