Vickie, sorry we haven't had the pleasure of knowing each other! I'm kinfolk Nivell and Leon were precious Aunt and Uncle to me and I spent much time n their home. Life guided us apart in our grown up lives. Your Clinton was so much more than I knew. My knowledge of him was more on my following him on Facebook. But from reading the above I didn't really know much about him.He was a very busy and helped all that he could, and very active in his city and community!!!! My prayer have been going up daily. Clinton and Mayfan I could never come up with words to tell U my feelings for all of you!! My thoughts and prayers go to God for you.Clint is in the presence of God!!! He lived a Godlike life. Plus was a very brilliant young man. Love to all of you.

Clint was a unique individual. He was knowledgeable about nearly everything. You always knew what he thought. He was a strong supporter of the Republican Party. He had a very distinctive laugh. He will be missed. I will be praying for his family as I will not be able to attend his services.

Dear Thomas Family,
You don’t know me but I am very close to Judy and knew Leon & Nivel. Wesley is same age as my youngest and have grown up together in Jacksonville. We too lost our firstborn too soon, at the beginning of the pandemic. Prayer is good for the soul and you’ll need it during these coming days and especially the Holidays. We’ll comfort Judy here, she has many friends and be extremely thankful for your big family to comfort you in this hard time. We will keep you and yours in our prayers.

I had opportunity to work with Clint at Young Homes ICF/IID- Friendship Community Care in Russellville. Clinton was attending school at Tech and he helped cover the overnight at the facility. He was a really good guy, and so involved in the field of Developmental Disabilities throughout his short life.
My heart goes out to his family & friends.
I will remember and miss him often.

Words cannot begin to describe the feeling of loss. Clint is a very dear friend and, I am very proud to say, Fellow Brother. It is my honor to have known such a wonderful man who made sincere contributions to everyone he met. Take comfort in knowing that, although, he has laid down his earthly working tools; Clint has been called to the Celestial Lodge Above. Till we meet again my dear Brother.

Clint was instrumental and the most knowledgeable individual we have ever had in our local republican committee. He truly helped build our republican committee to what it is today. He made sure our election commission functioned properly and honestly. I never met an individual as dedicated to elections as this man. I will miss him greatly. Whereever eternal life is promised, Clint will be there

I'm so sorry. When I received the email Thursday morning from the County Committee, I was heartbroken. To lose a Friend, Brother in Christ and Fellow Lodge Brother is Devastating.
My heart goes out to all of Clint's Family in this time of life. Please know that all of you are in my thoughts and prayers during your loss. Praying for GOD's Comfort and Peace in the Days to come.
Clint was a Man worth knowing and a great friend. I thank God for allowing our paths to cross in life, even though it was just a few years.

Clint was the epitome of a man who loved and lived his life for GOD, FAMILY, and COUNTRY. As a Miller County Republican Committee member, Clint has served as County Chair, Secretary, Election Commissioner, and as chair of several committees. Clint has also served Miller County as a Constable. Clint's current position was as the Miller County Republican Committee Secretary.
Some of us know Clint for his unapologetic online posts, most of the time in defense of Christian and conservative values, but sometimes just for fun. Others know him personally for his witty and sarcastic sense of humor that could make you laugh out loud until you cried. Many more have experienced his contributions and influence through the many gifts he possessed and shared with us, most notably, his efficient organization, technical/online talents, and journalism.
Clint was a great man who will be immensely missed. Farewell friend.
