Clancy, aged 55, was recently retired from MTS. He will be remembered for his love of books, his intelligence and his sense of humour. A lifelong Manitoban, Clancy built a house, jumped out of an airplane, engineered a few inventions and played many practical jokes. He will be greatly missed by his family and friends. Rhonda and her daughters would like to thank everyone for their kind words and good wishes. As per Clancy's wishes, cremation has taken place and there will be no funeral service. And there sat Sam, looking cool and calm, in the heart of the furnace roar; And he wore a smile you could see a mile, and he said. Please close that door. It's fine in here, but I greatly fear you'll let in the cold and storm - Since I left Plumtree, down in Tennessee, it's the first time I've been warm. - Robert Service Transcona Funeral Chapel in care of arrangements.
