    My favorite memories of Clyde were our meetings at his shop to review a set of ironwork plans. I'd drop off a set of drawings to review with him to bid and he'd dissect them before they were unrolled. After he flipped through them completely while also...  more

    Clyde has always been the ideal collaborator who's knowledge and experience were so helpful. Our working relationship has always been the most professional and pleasant. He will be sorely missed as part of our community.

    I met Clyde in 1995. I was new in the construction world but Clyde would always take the time to explain and impart his wisdom. After looking over a set of drawings, I can hear him saying now, "that ain't gonna work" as he would quickly start...  more

    I will always remember Clyde as a very caring person, always ready to lend a hand. A true family man. He always took the time to speak with my mom and dad who always enjoyed visiting with him - he was their neighbor for a good many years. We love you....  more

    I will never forget the time we got busted drinking...  more

    Clyde will be deeply missed by all of us in the building business. When my daughter got married, Clyde removed and reinstalled our wrought iron fence. He would not let me pay for it. He said “ consider it a wedding gift to

    I met Clyde in 1978. He was my neighbor, 3 doors down. I was 14 he was 16. Once shy (believe it or not!), it took a little while to get to know him. I remember the cars he drove. His Dodge Dart, his yellow LTD, but most of all his 67 Camaro. He sure did...  more

    Clyde was a great guy to work with over the years! Always had a smile and one of the friendliest guys to work with. He will be terribly missed by all who knew him. Until we meet again Clyde!

    We will miss you Uncle Clyde. You were always very kind, caring, and very, very giving. You also had a hell of a sense of humor that we all enjoyed very much. A great man. May you Rest In Peace.
