I still think of Clyde from time to time. We were two of the dozen "firsties" at The GrayBrier before it opened. Clyde always had a vested interest in his department. He was quick to crack jokes and make us all laugh. He had a kind heart, and I know so many people still and will always miss him.

It saddens me that he is gone. Clyde had a great sense humor. I knew him as a stand up guy who looked you in the eye when he spoke. Thanks for the memories Clyde, Rest in Peace. Your family will remain on my heart and in my prayers.

I was so sorry to hear of Uncle Clyde's passing. I have such fond memories since my early childhood of him and his music. Such talent! I dreamed of being able to play like him! He was always good to me. I wished my kids could have met him. To all of Clyde's children, my parents and I are thinking and praying for you.

Clyde was a good man who would help anyone out that was in need. He was a great man to work for. He helped some of my family out when they was in need by giving them a place to live and by giving them a job that was included me I was a climber with his tree company that was a top notch tree company. He was a well respected man and to the community a highly respected man. He will be truly missed and loved.

My sympathy also goes out to you, B.J., Clyde's other daughter, who I did not know about as well as I did Suzanne. You lost your father, too, and I want you to know that he was so excited when you were born. He was always a boasting father about his girls. May you also keep good memories of him in your heart forever.

My deepest sympathy in the passing of your dad. I worked with him at The GrayBrier in 1992 until he moved on. I was the Director of Social Work, and he was the Director of Dietary. He was someone who always made us laugh no matter how bad the situation. Suzanne, you were always the light in his life, and he loved you so much and was so proud of you. I have good memories of him and always will. May you find comfort in the good memories and love he has left behind for you and your loved ones.

Saddened to read of your father's passing. I first met him back in 1989 when he sold me my first new car. Funny thing though, I was working with Jane at the hospital. It was such a small world. Later, BJ and my daughter (Morgan) had daycare together. May you find comfort and peace during this time.

Suzanne and Family,
Our hearts and prayers go out to you and your family during this difficult time. As the days come and go be at peace and know that the memories you carry of your father will last a lifetime, and will one day bring you warmth and happiness. Someone once told me that God only gives the toughest jobs to those whom are special and strong, and that caregivers hold a very special place in his heart, this once brought me comfort and I hope it will do the same for you. I know your father was blessed to have had such a warm,caring,loving daughter and most of all friend because you have blessed are family in so many ways. We will continue to pray for you and your family we love you.
Love Rice, Zydonik, and Edmunds Family
