I worked with Clyde at Yellow Cab, in the ’70’s. He was a great guy, we sat up at the cab stand many nights, swapping stories. Just by luck, I called him a few months ago and we shared some memories for quite a while. I’m glad I did that, I will miss him. R.I.P., Clyde

I am lucky to have grown up knowing such an unforgettable smile, and such a good man. Pawpaw will be missed.
Even after almost 25 years , words still escape me … Although I knew this day was approaching , it is hard to accept and is unbelievable … You left me with many memories which started when Aunt La Juana insisted a date with you was the best thing I could do… Turns out , she was right… You will forever hold that special place in my heart as well as in the hearts and memories of so many friends and family… A simple man , and one of a kind who touched the lives and memories of so many in ways both big and small … May God welcome you with open arms and set you close to His side… Rest in peace my dear one and I’ll see you again one day…Eternal.

I first met Clyde at the drive through when I started to work in pharmacy at H-E-B in Bellmead in 2005. He was always so sweet and nice. I loved to wait on him. I knew it was him when I would see that Yellow Cab coming in. Evelyn thank you for being my friend. I’m thankful I have been able to keep up with him through you. Love you Sweet Lady. I know you are really going to miss him. I will miss ‘my boyfriend’ too.
Kevin, Cindy and Justin Peters want to wish you all the best. Our prayers are with you. Clyde was like a father to me and I will never forget him.
Dad was a great man, loved by his grandsons especially little Wade. Now he and Wade can see each other again and share their special time as pawpaw and grandson can only do. He will be missed greatly. There are no words to express the sadness this brings to our family.

You are the brightest star in heaven tonight shining down on all those who loved you and you loved in return….Dad was not only my Dad , but my friend as well…I’ll miss our times of laughter , the joking around , and fun get togethers …Noting can diminish them for they are embed in my heart…. Dad… I’ll miss you every day and will feel the blessings of being your child…. Dad…. Sleep in the arms of God… You are at peace…. I’ll remember always ” YOU. “… That ” SIMPLE MAN. “
