Mrs. Roberta and family,
We are so sorry to hear about Mr. Satch. I remember when Mr. Satch brought hay and his trailer for our class to ride on for the Homecoming parade for Super Hero’s when Conner Wood was in elementary.
Mr. Satch always had a smile on his face and a kind heart.
We will be praying for God to comfort you and your family during this very difficult time.

Clois holds a dear spot in many of our hearts. He was a man of strength and faith. Always had a smile for everyone and an uplifting word. All of us in the class of 1966 will miss him and his leadership. May he rest in peace.

Back in the days of our youth, our families called him Bill or Billy. I don't know why, but we did. It seemed right back then and for me, it still does now, oh so many years later. Come what may, he set a great example of spirit, attitude, friendship, and purpose for family and friends. A kind and gentle soul has gone home. I pray that God will give his family peace and comfort through this time.

Although I only spent my eleventh and twelfth grades at Yellville-Summit High I remember Clois well. He was always the life of the party. He enjoyed life to the fullest. We met again around 2000 when he installed a new phone system for the church I was pastoring in Mountain Home. He made it possible for me to have a flip phone which was just on the market. Even after running over that phone and washing it in the washing machine it still worked! Although I cannot attend the service I will keep his family in my prayers.

Satch enjoyed life. That smile was always present. We are sorry for your loss. Satch has probably chosen a good horse and is riding into the sunset.

Daphne and family,
I am so sorry for your loss. Satch was such a great person. He was always upbeat and personable to be around. I knew him growing up in Mountain Home and had the opportunity to work with him a lot at the phone company. Satch always helped me with phone issues at the bank and I could always count on him. He always had a way of making me laugh. You will be missed by many.
