Condolences to the Family

April 07, 2014

To the Hart family,
Pat and I just found out about Clarence’s passing yesterday, April 6th.  We are very sorry for your loss, but know Clarence is at home with his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  I’m not quite sure how I missed his obituary, but I did.  Without a doubt we would have been to his memorial service.  As with many others, we loved Clarence and enjoyed the many years of worshipping with him.  You didn’t have to be around Clarence very long to realize that he loved Jesus as a #1 priority in his life.  I know you must be sad to lose him in this life, but I’m sure his death gives you great motivation to continue to be a Christ follower and someday join him in eternal life.  A smile comes to my face when I think of Clarence.  He has been an excellent example for others to follow in their walk with Christ.   Blessings to the entire Hart family, Pat and Barry Mowrer
