The Bonds family send prayers up for the Staggs family during this difficult time. Clyde will be missed by all that knew him.
It is with a heavy heart that I type this. What a blessing to have known Clyde for the last 20 years. I first met Clyde as a vendor. It did not take long for that to morph into a friendship. He was wonderful man who loved his family. Always upbeat and friendly. My prayer for the family is for strength, wisdom and comfort in the days to come. We will see him again...Love, Richard King-Momar Inc.

Prayers for you all Love in Christ Sylvia (Sophia) Johnson
