I was so sorry to see that Clarence had passed away. It has been sooooo many years since I’d seen him or the family. I used to live 2 houses from the Koenigsfeld family (on Belair Drive) and baby sat for the kids. My thoughts are with them and Marjorie as Clarence is remembered with joyful memories and prayers.
I’m so sorry for your loss!
Clarence Family, one of my best customers and we were his customers…so sorry! Sue Phillips Brune and Mike Brune
Sorry to hear of Clarence’s passing. He was always there for you if you needed him. Learned to water ski on the Osage and cook a large ham on a Webber gas grill. And even installed a few kitchen cabinets. Rest in Pease Clarence. Condolences to the family.
We were so sorry to hear of Clarence’s passing. We always enjoyed working with Clarence, as he has made cabinets for us many times! He was always available whenever we needed him and most recently came out to our house a few months ago to check on our latest job we had going on. It was nice to see him and visit with him. Clarence and all who loved him are in our prayers.
Sincerely, Kelly and Jim Jackson
Hi! It’s Lisa Goeller-MacCallum. I grew up with the Koenigsfelds, as a Belair Rd. neighbor and classmate of Joey’s. Also my dad, Herb Goeller had a house on the river next to the Koenigsfeld’s cabin. So many amazing childhood memories with your family. I loved your dad! He was honary and always in such a good mood. He will be greatly missed.
