He had been employed for a period of time on Sable Island, was a woodland contractor for many years and had been a fisherman with Jack Bronson, Pictou. He possessed a great knowledge and appreciation for nature. Clinton enjoyed being out on the water, fishing, trapping, hunting and ski-dooing. He was an avid reader and “seafood chef”. Clinton liked going for road trips throughout the province, Newfoundland and across Canada. He treasured the memories of his trips to Montana and Spain. He looked forward to his daily visits from his furry friends, Bear and Cujo. Clinton was fond of using humour and practical jokes to say “I love you”. He was moved by the plight of others and sought ways to quietly help. Clinton was especially proud of his children and grandchildren. He appreciated all those who brought meaning to his life.
