Finest man I have ever known. Blessed beyond measure to have him as my dad
In both of our too-young marriages, John Clinton and I married siblings, and he quickly became the brother I'd never had. That bond lasted until my move out of state several years ago. I have rejoiced in his "golden years" friendship with our old friend and neighbor Barbara Thomas. John Clinton helped UT Tyler get four-year accreditation from the State of Texas Coordinating Board during my tenure there. This "brother" called me immediately when my firstborn Benjamin McLemore died. He and his sisters always treated me as a kinsman, and his daughter Lynn won the heart of my children as their first cousin. His first father-in-law loved him for as long as he lived. I can imagine these two of my heroes shaking hands at the Pearly Gates as St Peter greets them both with a hearty "Well done, faithful servants" and an everlasting AMEN. --with love always, Joy McLemore
My name is Susan Kranz and my father was Floyd Faircloth who passed away 10 years ago. My Dad was the private pilot for John and his family as well as his business associates for several years. He always talked so highly of John, Jana, Carrie, and Dan. He loved his job tremendously and always felt blessed to have known the family and always looked forward to flying them wherever they needed to go. I am so sorry to hear about John’s passing and pray that God will grasp the family and friends of John in His living arms and give you the comfort and peace you need in the coming days. May God bless you.
