Here's a cute story about Uncle Clyde and Aunt Bea as told to me by Wallace Somers: Before Aunt Bea and Uncle Clyde married she worked at a restaurant in the Poplar Bluff, Mo. area and Uncle Clyde would ask his younger brother "Buzzy" to go with him to see Bea at the restaurant. Well, Buzzy was dating Aunt Joyce in St. Louis at the time and he was getting tired of having to go with Clyde to see Bea... So, finally Buzzy spoke up as Bea was serving them one evening and exclaimed "Why don't you just marry him?" Aunt Bea blushed - but she and Clyde eventually married thanks to Uncle Buzzy. :) A tribute to Uncle Clyde and Aunt Bea's marriage is the fact she never remarried after his tragic death in a car accident in 1962. I think that says much about the type of man Clyde was. May the good Lord bless his memory! Amen.
