I will sadly miss you Uncle Clair. I will remember dearly how you and Uncle Hilton taught all of us, how to play Poker for pennies. Which I saved and you gained on nearly every time we played. Love you and will miss you. - Posted by: Cheri Mayert (Anderson) (Niece) on: Oct 09, 2013

So sorry I missed the service. I often think about Clair, giving me my first job at Pacific 66. the trust and respect he gave me has never been forgotten. Will always remember his laugh. Never forget driving that 1/2 ton truck he taught me to drive, and the deposits made at home Bryan at the house. What a Great Man !!! - Posted by: Vic Franco (Friend) on: Sep 29, 2013
