with cancer. Clyde moved to Oklahoma City when he was a sophomore and graduated Southeast
High school in 1953. Joining the Air Force in June 1954, he completed basic

a home in Oklahoma City. He attended Oklahoma City University and graduated

worked at FAA, GE, and Honeywell in Oklahoma City. He then started his sales
career moving to Tulsa and working for Motorola. From there Clyde and family
moved to Bartlesville and back to Oklahoma City ending his career in sales
with AT&T. After retirement, Clyde enjoyed working with his hands, making and fixing
things. He especially enjoyed making canes and bird houses. When he was no
longer able to work in his shop, he began making quilts to keep his mind
occupied while dealing with his cancer. He was a long-time member of
Lutheran Church of Our Savior, Bethany, OK. He enjoyed OU sports and
attended many basketball and football games.Clyde’s pride and joy were his family, his wife, Alberta (Kay); his
