To Clydes family. Please accept my most sincere condolonces on his passing. I have known him for more than 25 years. He and his crew have been my mechanics forever. I didn't know till today, that he had passed away. The world has lost a wonderful man and someone really cool. I never wondered that he was being honest with me and my family in his dealings. I always knew he was. God Bless his family and friends. And Dee my best wishes are with you. Thanks for a wonderful relationship with all of you guys.

Approximately 31 and one-half years ago my Family ( Ron, Debbie, Kenny and myself ) moved next door to Clyde. There are so many memories stemming from our friendship. And just like Life ; some are happy, some are sad. I am the last representative of the "Boat People" to sign in. The 8 of us liked to travel together - especially cruises. With Clyde's passing only 5 of us remain. I suspect the other 3 are cruising in Heaven.
Clyde was such a good person who endured more than his share of hardships.
My Daughter Debbie and I were privileged to accompany him on his final Alaskan fishing trip this past August.
My sympathy goes out to all who loved him.

My deepest condolences to Clyde's family. Hard to believe it's been over 12 years since I asked him to inspect a truck I was thinking about buying. He said it would serve me well. I'm still driving it, and he sure was right about it. I know he'll be deeply missed.

Where will I take all my car problems now? With each teenager going through 3 cars each I think Clyde got lost with all the different cars I brought him to work on usually towing them in the middle of the night and leaving him a note. He was such an honest and caring man! He took such good care of my sister Amanda, her brother Steven and their mother Shawna. Please be comforted that Clyde is now holding your mother in his arms and they are together again. Probably planning a fishing trip!
Grief, like the ocean, comes in waves
only to recede and come yet again.
But with it comes healing.
Memories wash ashore
and are bathed by the golden sun.
Grab hold of those memories and
let them fill the emptiness. May they bring you peace.
I love you all and you're in my thoughts and prayers.
Tammy & Family

Clyde and his siblings are my cousins! Anna Dee Bleazard Rowley, their mother, was my father's sister. I regret that he and I did not visit often. Ken and I extend condolences to the many people who loved him so much. Your expressions of love and loss have touched us. Clyde will always live on in all of you.

We are so terribly sorry for your loss. Clyde was such an honest and great man. I remember taking our motorhome in and my husband insisting it needed brakes all around. Clyde said I could charge you for it and not do the work because it doesn't need it but I couldn't and wouldn't do that. Trust me, I would take my family anywhere in this right now and they are most precious to me. I hope the memories and knowing how much he loved and cared for each of you helps you through this very difficult time. We were blessed to know him.

I am Debbie Hartmans Mother, and I want to tell you that I am so very sorry for your loss. Your father was a great person and could make us laugh. He had a wonderful sence of humor.
I met your father when Debbie first met him he was a super person & made her happy and took her to places that she had never been before. I am going to miss him and I hope to meet you some time. Just know that you will see him again some day. My love to you.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Our thoughts, hearts and prayers go out to you and the Rowley family in this time of sadness. Your father was a blessed man for having you in his life. May your sweet memories of Clyde bring you comfort.

I am so very sad to learn of Clyde's passing. I live directly across the street from Clyde and we waved every morning as we each drove off to work. After Shauna died, I had many late night visits with Clyde (always with Ahsti lying at the foot of Clyde's chair), at which time he would shed tears and tell me he didn't know how he could go on without Shauna. I am happy that Clyde and Shauna are together again. I am also glad that Clyde was able to find happiness again. We will miss our dear friend very much.

It is with deep sorrow that I sit and write this, Peggy and I would like to express our deepest sympathies to the Rowley family. Clyde was a very very good friend of ours (as we were two of the Boat People) we were able to spend many cruises and vacations together. We started out as a group of eight that enjoyed traveling together and now there is only five of us left. Again Peggy and I would like to express or deepest regards to the Rowley Family.

Clyde, I am going to miss you so much. You are one person that believed in me. You took me skydiving and knew that I could do it with no problem. That was such a beautiful experience and I will never forget that, or you for being such a wonderful brother. There are so many memories that will stay with me forever. I love you. Shannie

To Clydes Family,
I am Debbie Hartmans daughter and I am so sad for your loss. I only met Clyde a few times and each time he was so fun to be around. I was able to watch him make my mom so happy as they spent so much time together. Our family will keep your family in our thoughts and prayers during this tough time.

I have known Clyde and Dee for 25 years because of their repair shops. Clyde always treated us honestly and has been very professional in keeping my family and company vehicles running well. I will miss those times talking with Clyde and hearing about his fishing adventures. I am glad that during this time of year and the Spirit of Christ we know we will see Clyde again.

Clyde has been a part of my life since I can remeber, from being babysat by his family when they lived next to my grandparents and then when I got older getting my car fixed at Rowley Automotive. He has been a great friend to my Grandparents throughout the years and has been my Grandpma's buddy since Gramps passed away. If I wasn't hearing stories of the boat people traveling, then I was hearing stories of My Mom and Grandma traveling with him, from New Years in Wendover to my Mom's first Alaska trip. I know she loved that Clyde and I know we will all miss you dearly. You sure will have good company though. Please tell Steven Hello and give my Gramps the biggest hug from me please.

Not knowing Clyde more than 2 years, he was a very gracious and giving man. We learned of his fairness very quickly and his willingness to help anyone at any time. He will be missed by everyone he knew in his lifetime. We wish all of his family the best knowing that Clyde is in peace and with his family that have passed before him. Our prayers and thoughts are with all of you in this troubled time.
