    To Mary and family and all of Clarance’s brothers and sisters. So sorry to hear of Clarance’s passing. I have many treasured memories of growing up in Normans Cove and the much time I spent at Aunt Lucy and Uncle Seymours with all the boys and the two girls.Clarance was always the one that all the rest looked up to. I remember him working at Merrill Warrens garage. God bless you all.

    Clarence you portrayed a man with a rough exterior but had a heart as soft as a bunny. I truly admired the love you had for your wife Mary. I can imagine how much she will miss you especially on those snuggly Sundays. 59 Years is quite the feat. Easy to admire! Shows how much love was between you both. I know you are using those worms finally up there. And I KNOW you will save me a few trout as always..Thank you..xox Warren, Lisa, Collette and family I am so sorry for your loss. I know how much your hearts hurt right now. He was so proud of you all...know that. Bragged about EVERYONE of you and your kids and your kids kids! He is going to be missed by many. Carry your memories with you always...Rest in Peace to a beautiful soul and thank you for always making me feel like a part of your family....Xxx
