  37. So very sad to hear of Clyde passing ! I have known him almost my entire life! From pumping air in my bicycle tires as a child, to working on my car as an adult! Hanging out at the garage, to hanging out at his house! Watched with envy as a child, him playing basketball! Clyde was a good man! Misunderstood his sarcasm and his humor at times, only to see that big grin, and know he was just having fun! Although I moved from Danville almost 30 years ago, I always tried to drop by and see him and the gang, when I visited! I\’ve missed those times for 30 years, and now I will miss him even more! May God Bless the family, and like me look forward to reuniting with him in the future! Prayers to all!
