It is with great sadness that I learned of the passing of "Onkel Clarence". I'll never forget the road trips to see family in Creston, his wry and witty sense of humour or losing (badly) to him at crib. I always admired his calm demeanor and his ability to make people chuckle. My sincerest condolences and deepest sympathy go out all the friends and family of the Stickels.
It's hard to know what to say at a time of sorrow but we would like you all to know that our thoughts & prayers are with you at this time. We know you'll have many good memories to share for years to come. Take Care. Sincerely, Mel & Gladys Woitte
