My sincere sympathies to the Family. Please take comfort in God's promises the he will swallow up death forever and wipe away tears from all faces.

My bumpa was an incredible man.  He loved the Lord, he was spoiling his grandchildren, and sports.  He was SO proud of our armed forces, and is one of the greatest patriots I've ever known.  I learned my love for sports from him.  There won't be a day that goes by that I won't think of him when I watch my Wildcats.  More than any great U of A athlete, I think of my bumpa as the face of Wildcat athletics.  I miss him so much, but I know I will see him again.

Clint was an amazing man.  He instantly made you feel special, a rare gift indeed.  He had an amazing character, though he was a character, and you could sense his love for Eunice and anyone in his presence.  The world seems a sadder place on his passing.  I share with you in a small way your sense of loss.  Love, Steve.

I have such great memories of times that Duane and I spent with Clint, Eunice and family. The joy of the Lord overcomes grief as we acknowledge that our loved ones are with HIM.

My condolences to the Wicklund Family. I enjoyed working with Clint at the U of A events. Enjoyed listening to the WW11 war stories and adventures. He always had a smile and a kind word for everyone. God bless the Wicklund Family.

What I'm never going to forget about my grandpa is the fact that he waved in every photo; he always had a military story to tell; and he hated wasting anything.  He was always joyful and was the perfect grandpa.  Someday, I'll tell my own kids about our happy memories together, and about mine and Grandpa's awesome seashell.

I first met Clint at the City of Tucson through my dad who worked with Clint in the Building Maintenance Division. Clint had a great influence on my life as he was the one that talked me into joining the Air National Guard of which he was a member. I retired from the National Guard after 20 + years thanks to Clint. We continued our friendship through the years as fellow workers at the City, seeing him at the ticket turnstiles at the U of A sporting events and the annual retirees barbeque. He always had that big smile and kind words to say. Clint never met anyone that didn't immediately become his friend. My whole family Mom, Dad, brother, and me always considered Clint a real friend especially in his early years at the City. He was the kind of guy that once you met him your paths always seemed to cross at some point in the future. Clint holds a special place in my heart for the person that he was. Sorry I will not be able to attend his services on Saturday. I will be on a mission's trip with our church in Mexico. Our prayers and thoughts are with his family during this time. God Bless.

My dad was the best.  He passed down so many gifts to me.  His sense of humor, his love for his country, and most of all His love for the Lord are the things I will remember the most.  He was a hard-working man who really loved life and never met a stranger.  He taught me not to take myself too seriously, and he always made my mom, my sister, and me feel like we were the most important people on this earth.  Thank you, Dad.  I'll be seeing you again someday!

I am full of great memories of Uncle Clint ever since I was a young girl. Now I just told my friends how he put a motor on his bike as a teenager when living in SE Minneapolis....he was filled with a 'sense of fun' and went out into this world and loved it. He has left us with a great legacy and one that I will.   always carry with me.
