It is with heavy hearts that we share the peaceful passing of a gentle giant in our lives – Clarence. He was husband to Beth (Gibson), Dad to Paul (Theresa) and David (Dennis) and Poppa to his grandchildren Justin (Jenn), Elyse (Adam), Lizzie (Phil) and Tor. His great grandchildren Emma, Julia, Evelyn, Amelia, Greta, Margo always brought a smile to his face and twinkle to his eye.
