Clarence, known as "Kelly" by everyone, was a farmer and a carpenter. In later years he lived on the old Sherman homestead in Fairview Township-- he survived three tornados in that house. He retired to refinish antique furniture, much of it from the Sherman house. He had plenty of space in the barns and other buildings to do this work which he enjoyed very much.
