Our prayers and deepest condolences are extended to Clarice's family. We knew Clarice as "Delphine." Personally, I have very fond memories of my siblings and I being at the Strickland home to fellowship and to visit our cousins, Margaret and Sheila. In later years, I was inspired by Delphine's faith, strength and courage, as she gracefully dealt with her illness, while serving others. Each time I saw her, we had very encouraging conversation. Rest in heavenly reward, Delphine! Teresa Kellam-Gilchrist, Doris Kellam & Family
My Prayers and Condolences to the family God Will comfort you in your time of needs.
