Dear Linda, Shane, Shelly & Grandma, I am so very sorry to hear about Clint. When we moved to St Francis in 1983 my son Bill Anderson & Clint became very close friends. Clint was always willing to help or do whatever he could to help. He met my family at holidays & they loved his friendly way. Clint would bring his new dish or food he wanted us to try, his pickled northern were awesome. We enjoyed his jokes over the years & the tricks kids play on parents. We had lots of fun & many laughs over the years & he will be very sadly missed. My thoughts and prayers to you all.
Linda, Shane, Shelly, and Sally, our prayers are with your family. We are so sorry to hear about Clint. He was a great cook, loved to joke around and always had a story to tell. He loved a great deal whether it was an estate sale to the meat sales at County market and was willing to share his knowledge of what he knew to make sure you got a great deal also. He loved his deer hunting time. Clint had a good heart and cared for his family. God will get you through and look to Him for guidance and peace. Prayers to your family. Philippians 4: 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Sincerly, Ken Schleif family
I have great sorrow to learn that Clint has passed. I spent most of my life calling him a best friend. I believe there are many others that can say that same thing. I have a lot of great memories spent with Clint. Mostly fishing, looking for deer, laughing, and having deep conversations about things in life, As most know he was very opinionated and stuck to his beliefs. That is what I like most about him. He was great at arguing his point –right or wrong! Beyond the surface he has a big heart and I love him like a brother. I will miss him dearly. I am sure he is planning a fishing trip with his grandfather as I write this and I hope his family and anyone that is close to him feels comfort in knowing that.
I am so sorry for your loss. Clint was an awesome guy awesome with my boys Hunter and Fisher. he loved to take them fishing. My other half lost his best friend fishing buddy and funny jokes funny stories you name it he always made us laugh. Johnny and I are going to cherish the memories we had with him. He will always be in are hearts. I sure am going to miss going to County Market and not running into him and here about Jim’s Market what meet is on sale and what lake has good fish or river. If you need anything let us know.
Dear Linda, Shane, Shelly, I heard from JL Glass and my daughter Jennifer about Clint’s death. My wife Leslie and I are sad to hear of his passing. Though it was over a week ago, you still need our sympathy and understanding. We have fond memories of your family during our time in Elk River. Clint was in Rangers and I remember his smiling face whenever we did anything as an Outpost. God bless you and comfort you, Thor and Leslie Johnson
On behalf of the Zepp Family ( you remember me as Amy Hoogenboom) I wish to extend our condolences to you. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this heartbreaking time.
