He is also survived by his sister Ruth (Milton) and a host of nieces and nephews. Clem loved his family, his church family and his work family. Next to his family and friends, work was his passion. He truly loved his job. He worked for Southern Company Services as a Mechanical Design Engineer from the time he was married in 1965 until he retired in 1999. After 2 years of retirement, he went back as a contract worker. He was loved and respected by all he worked with, as a person and for his amazing knowledge and ability for his job. When he was finally unable to work in 2016, he greatly missed being able to do the job he loved so much.
