Dear Anna and family .. my thoughts and care go your way. I have wonderful memories of Waterloo days, dating back to '69 and '70 .. the family was. young then. Later in Cowansville, a smaller home, but your hearts were just as big, to receive one and all! We are grateful that Clem lived for this day, prepared for it and embraced it. Now he rests from his labours. Love, Muriel

Dear Anna and family: Please accept my sympathy in your great loss. It seems we all have valued our relationships with Clem through the years. Mine began when he came about 1954 to help Russell Miles build a new home for my parents. My sister remembers he brought us children a little black and white puppy. He was nice to us children. It was special to be at Richmond together this summer for a few days. May you know the continued kindness of the Comforter.

To the family so sorry for your lost. But he left his goodness in each and everyone of you. This is a hard time I’m certain, but remember the good times and smile when you hear or say his name. Don’t be sad for him , he is gone to a better place , we cry because we are left behind, but God will reunite you all again. Until then cherish every moment and memory that you all share together.
