Elsie, We remember and treasure the Christian example Clyde and you were for us and many other young married couples. Clyde had a tender, loving soul and you definitely felt special anytime you saw or talked to Clyde on the phone! I cannot begin to count how many phone calls he made wishing so many of us Happy Birthday year after year!
Our hearts hurt for your pain and sadness, yet we can rejoice in knowing Clyde is healed and in the presence of our Lord. He’s gone home to begin his heavenly birthday and we will see him again. We love you and are praying for God to comfort you in this time.
