Erin, Mark, and family of Mr. Clutter, I was so sorry to read of the passing of your dad. Please accept my condolences. I always got a big kick out of your dad when he would ride by my house on Brockton Rd. on his scooter and he would wave as he went by.

To the family, We will miss Bub greatly, but we know he is in a better place. He is probably fishing with Carroll as we speak. We will never forget him putting the fishing lure in Carroll's casket. I hope they get to use it in heaven. God Bless you all and stay strong in these tough times. Love and Prayers, Elaine Frye and Larry and Judy Davis 91 Leatherwood Mtn. Rd.
