I never had the privilege of meeting this giant of a man but Clyde and Oma have repeatedly told me over the years that I would have loved him. From the stories I've been blessed to hear, I'm sure that's true. One consolation I have is that I shall meet him one day in heaven and happily introduce myself to him as the wife of his grandson Clyde. Perhaps he already knows who I am.
