So sorry for your loss! Clarence we such a great guy! Not afraid to show his faith in God, talk about his days growing flowers & working at Jolly lane, brag about his family & just being around people. What a wonderful person. I was secretary at the Veterans Home before they built the new building for 11 years. Clarence was always a joy to have around!
