Note: SSS#: clare parks 364-24-9826
CLARE WAS QUITE A GOOD CARPENTER. HE BUILT HIS OWN HOME, AND HE ALSO BUILT HIS PARENTS COTTAGE UP IN SKIDWAY LAKE, MICHIGAN. HE LOVED TO FISH AND HUNT AS A YOUNG MAN. HE SERVED IN WWII IN FRANCE. HE WAS STATIONED CLOSE BY NORMANDY. HE WAS ALWAYS BUILDING SOMETHING IN HIS BASEMENT, HE MADE THE BASEMENT INTO A REAL NICE PLACE TO ENTERTAIN GUEST AND FAMILY. THERE WAS A LOT OF GOOD TIMES THAT WE SHARED IN THAT HOME. WHEN HE WAS FIRST MARRIED THE FAMILY LIVED IN SHIELDS, SAGINAW, MICHIGAN, HIS BROTHER, MERLIN LIVED NOT TOO FAR OUT OF HIS BACK YARD. ONE NIGHT MERLIN ASKED TO BORROW HIS CAR. WHEN HE GOT BACK HE PARKED CLARE'S CAR BACK IN THE YARD. CLARE GOT UP TO FIND A HUGE BUTCHERED PIG IN HIS OUT HOUSE. MERLIN HAD A FEW TOO MANY THAT NIGHT AND DECIDED TO " BORROW" A PIG FROM A BUTCHER SHOP. OF COURSE THE PIG WAS NO GOOD BY THE TIME THEY FOUND IT. CLARE GOT MERLIN UP AND HAD HIM GET RID OF THE PIG. NO ONE KNOWS HOW HE COULD CARRY THAT PIG BY HIMSELF, IT TOOK BOTH MEN TO PICK IT UP AND PUT IT INTO THE CAR. [ HE MUST HAVE GOT HIS POWER FROM THE "FEW TOO MANY" THE NIGHT BEFORE] ANY WAY, HE ENDED UP THROWING IT INTO THE RIVER.
