Clarence was born November 17, 1918, in Morrison County Minnesota, to Anton and Lillian (Kridrowski) Walkoviak. Clarence began working on the family farm in Little Falls, MN, before completing school, to help his father make ends meet. Clarence was friends with Charles Lindbergh as the family farms were close to each other. Clarence served in the United States Army from May 1942 until November 1945 and was based in the Aleutian Islands of Alaska. Clarence married Mary Williams on June 22, 1943 in Brownwood. He was discharged from the Army at Camp Bowie and after WWII he worked at the brick plant in Brownwood. Clarence and Mary later moved to Comanche where he remained over 65 years. Clarence was in construction, building many homes in the Brownwood/Early and Comanche area, and was a painting contractor. Clarence did not have the hobbies that some men do, such as hunting or fishing, but spent all of his spare time with the grandchildren, great grandchildren, and great-great grandchildren.
