Clyde Drissel, never a bad day....


My Dad's brother, Clyde Drissel, (on the right)
died on Thursday, he was 95 years old.
Clyde was 10 years older than my dad, Sam.
In his 70's Clyde never had a bad day.
As he got into his 90's, his days were "so-so".
Clyde was the Drissel family historian,
he had many of the old Drissel pictures and
family stories.
We loved to visit with Clyde and enjoyed his
sense of humor. Even on our last visit to see him
in Oct he joked with us.
Farewell, Clyde.
You will be missed.

A lovely gentleman. What I'll remember about him is his smile and upbeat attitude.
