He and Catherine had seven children. Brian (Wendy), Nancy (Murray), Wayne (Mona), Janice (Mark), Maureen (Brian), Neil (Lorna), and Glen (Sherry). He had the gift of 22 grandchildren and 8 great grandchildren.
Clarence was one of 10 children. Ellis, Theresa, Ellard, Margaret Rose, Chrisita, Tersita, Crystal, Pauline, and Eldon.
