Glenn Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 From Chris Holt To PAABA Members, used with permission. It is with great sadness to report the passing of Bill Clemens. Bill was a wonderful friend to PAABA as a demonstrator. He brought us the Mastermryr Find in 2005, demonstrated at John Groll's in 2014 at our annual "Chili-fest", and just last fall at Bob Picken's Country Fab. Bill provided us with projects for our newsletters and items for our auctions. He will be greatly missed by our affiliate but also all of the blacksmith community. He worked tirelessly for ABANA in many capacities including as a Board Member. If you would like to send a card to the family, please mention you are a PAABA member. His wife (April), will appreciate knowing who sent cards and their relationship to Bill. A Celebration of Life visitation for Bill Clemens’ ashes will be August 8 (Tuesday) from 10 till Noon, with a service at Noon at the Trinity United Methodist Church on 3rd street in New Columbia, PA. The family requests NO fresh flowers. However, fellow smiths are encouraged to bring a hand-made (metal) flower on a stem to give as a remembrance of Bill. Relatives would like to ‘borrow’ a metal stand or vase to showcase these ‘flowers’ just for the service. There is a request for a hand-made cover (top and four sides) for the ashes, All are invited to a ham dinner after the services. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
