service as an MP in post-WWII Korea. He was extremely proud of his

Legion, as well as being a former member of the Porterville
Breakfast Lions and the Luso-American Fraternal Federation.
As a 2nd generation Tulare County farmer and rancher for over 60
years, Clarence produced crops ranging from grapes, barley, cotton,
sugar beets, watermelons, alfalfa, prunes and various other products
until his retirement in 1975. Clarence and his wife were also strong
supporters of the 4-H Clubs and Porterville Fair, which included
being founding members and of the Rockford 4-H Club in 1957 and
project leaders for 25 years.
In retirement, Clarence enjoyed collecting antique farm equipment,
toy tractors, farm caps and Lions Club pins, playing cards and games

his grandkids and rooting for his favorite baseball team, the Dodgers.
