Clarence went to the Big Lake in the Sky today, where the weather
is always perfect and the big ones are always biting. We feel certain
he will hook up with two old fishing buddies, Jimmy Witty and Rick
Spencer, and take off on a celestial fishing trip. What a time
they will have for the rest of eternity! Three old fishing buddies 
back together again; fishing, telling tall tales and catching great
old bug “uns”. Clarence’s favorite fishing hole here on earth was
Palmyara Lake, spending days on his houseboat where time stood still.
Clarence loved fishing more than life itself.

In lieu of flowers the family request memorials be made to St. Jude
Children’s Research Hospital, 501 St. Jude Place, Memphis, TN.,
In honor of Claude Williams.
