A life is not lived, if not lived to the fullest. For Clyder, I have to believe that he fulfills his life with enjoyment. He treasures his family, has a passion for his career, adores his hobbies, and shares his interests with others. Whether it's cheering for the Vikings, Twins, or Hawkeyes, bird-watching, beer-drinking, card-playing, Western-watching, or coin-collecting, my father-in law is always teaching my kids to love what he does. He's a man that doesn't show much anger, keeps even-keeled, and has the biggest heart. He will always tell you hello and ask how you are when he sees you, and doesn't ever forget to call on your important days.
Today, Clyde celebrates 60 years. These years aren't something that he has many regrets for. He is a man that is rooted in his heritage, proud of his upbringing, and willing to look for the best in each day ahead. He's a man that many would be lucky to duplicate. Happy Birthday Clyder... and cheers!
