Shelley, Bridget, Nora, Ruth, Robert, Liam and Joey we are so very sorry for the loss of such a beautiful husband, dad, son and brother. Please know our thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Love you.

I’m deeply saddened to hear of the loss our colleague and friend!! My heart is in pain for Clarence’s family! I pray that God in his love will give you the strength to carry on and smile again! Even though he’s gone to sleep we’ll never forget him! Everytime I hear the sound of a drum set or an electric guitar, I know I’ll think of Clarence! Also, I loved to hear his deep resounding strong voice especially when he would speak in our assemblies! Gone to sleep Clarence, but never will be forgotten!!

Our thoughts, prayers and blessings are with you, Bridget, Nora and your families. Getting to know Clarence over the past 4 years with him playing darts with John has been a treasured gift in our lives.
He is an incredible man and incredible spirit. I will never forget him.
Getting to know you Shelley, at the dart banquets and during this difficult time, has been a pleasure….
There really aren’t any words to say to convey what we feel…Our love is with you during this difficult time and please know we are here if you need anything at all <3

I’m sorry for the loss of a great husband, father and friend. My thoughts are with you and the family. Love Tommy

His huge voice, his strong hugs, his never ending desire to help at a moment’s notice. Clarence was truly unique in every way. We should all hope to be more like him. I keep expecting to hear him on the phone telling us we never call…

Oh Shelly. Our hearts are broken for you and the girls. We will never forget the Christmases we had together with Adam and Clarence singing their hearts out. They were so funny. So many memories. Even if we can’t be there, our arms are wrapped around you. He will never be forgotten. God Bless you and your family. Love Carole and Cliff

Shelley, Nora, Bridget & family,
I am ever so sorry for your loss.
Clarence was a wonderful person, always willing to help out someone in need, always willing to lend an ear and a kind word. He was a fantastic teacher and an excellent colleague.
Sincerest condolences.

Words cannot express how sorry I am to learn of Clarence’s passing. Clarence was a wonderful Dad and husband who cheerished his family. May God give you the strength, Shelley, during this difficult time. You, Nora, and Bridget are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Shelley and family,
We are so sorry for your loss. Clarence has always been an optimistic and fun loving person who shared his happy demeanour with everyone who had the pleasure of his company. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Shelley, Bridget and Nora

Fondly and forever remembered.

At this difficult time, I pray that the almighty God will grant you the serenity and peace that you need to get through this. May you feel His presence and know that you’re remembered in my thoughts and prayers. May the Lord peace Himself give you peace in every way.

Clarence will always live on in us all when we show Laughter, Compassion, Empathy, Respect and the utmost Love for one another. I am heart-broken about your loss and that Clarence had to experience this illness. I will always cherish the memories that we shared as Friends through the years. Take care….My two children were looking at pictures of Clarence during visits and remembered playing on our swing set with Nora and Bridget during some visits….They wanted me to let you know that they would love for them to come and play with them again sometime.

My condolences to all of you and his family. We definitely lost a wonderful person who was always positive and full of energy. We will always miss him at Dunrankin.

I’m so sorry to hear about this, more then I can express. You don’t know me, but I knew Clarence from school. He was one of the few who was nice to me and was always making me laugh when I was too shy to talk to anyone. I’ve always remembered him for his kindness and his sense of humour. What a great guy! My heart and prayers go out to you.

There are virtually no words to express the terrible loss to this world Clarence leaves. The joy, the laughter, the incredible kindness he possessed cannot be matched in this world, nor the next. To Shelley and the girls I hope and pray that you eventually just remember the happy times- the incredible husband you chose to share your life with, the amazing father that touched your lives. Keep the booming laugh he gave the world always in your hearts, to retrieve whenever you need to remember the man we all loved.

Clarence I only got to teach with you a few years and it was the most fun and positive years I had working. You were the moat caring teacher I knew. You Always took the time to help out any student ESPECIALLY those less privileged troubled students who nobody else had the time for!! It is no wonder you are so popular. Peel District School Board has lost one of its best. My heart felt condolences goes out to your family my friend. RIP Clarence.

My deepest condolences Shelley, Bridget and Nora you are in my thoughts always xoxo

I met Clarence and his family through St. James United Church. We were thrilled to have them as part of our congregation. Clarence was such a kind man and I, personally, loved his optimism, his love of his family.
I, and I am sure am not alone, missed them when they moved on.
Out of sight, but, not out of mind, thanks to Karen Forgrave.
I do send my sincerest sympathies to everyone in Clarence’s family. He was a very special, caring man. He will be missed!
May God help bring peace to everyone who loved him.

We know Clarence through mutual friends at New Year’s Eve get-togethers. Although only once a year–it was always a pleasure to chat with Shelley and Clarence. We are deeply saddened by this news. Our deepest sympathies to your family during such challenging times. May God give you strength to heal and find comfort in the memories of Clarence. To Clarence, thank you for the chance to know you, find peace in Heaven and know you are fondly remembered by even acquaintances. Andy and Thuyanh

Rob and family, we’re so sorry for your loss at this time. Rob, I didn’t know your brother but if you two were cut from the same cloth I know I would have really liked him. I see by the write-up that he was truly a Brother of mine and has laid down his working tools of life. Alas, my Brother!

Shelley, Bridget and Nora,

I am so sorry for your loss. Clarence taught Art to my Kindergarten and Grade One classes. I was always so surprised at how fast he could get the attention of my whole class with his deep voice – much faster than I could! He often told them stories about his “little girls,” which really peeked their curiosity once he told them your ages. He will forever be in our hearts at Dunrankin.

Dear Shelley ,Bridget,Nora and family and friends of Clarence,

I’m so sorry for your loss. I had no idea he had been ill until I received the sad news last night. Clarence will be remembered well along with all the memories of all the great times we had so many years ago at the Reid cottage, not least of all his ability with his baritone voice to complete our ensemble in performing the Jungle Song anywhere and anytime we could. One of the nicest guys I’ve ever known and I’m sorry we lost touch for so long.

Oh weem-o-way, Oh weem-o-way…

Sending you all my positive thoughts and love,
Brad

Dear Shelley, Nora and Bridget,

I am deeply saddened by your loss. Clarence always spoke about you and his girls in glowing terms.
I will contiune to pray for you and your girls that the God of all comfort will will comfort and strenghten you.

Ann

I would really love to come up to my best teacher and thank him with all my family’s heart for teaching me all those three years and and making me successful in grade 2,3,4,5,6 and now grade 7. So once again my family is very sad for him and the whole family because of this very big loss, and lastly i want to say thank you for fixing my mistakes and making me serious about education and life!

From your student Nick,Shapira,

Dear Shelly, Bridget, and Nora,

Although I only worked with your husband and father for a short time at Dunrankin, he made an everlasting impression on me and on my future career as a teacher. I was fortunate enough to work with him last spring as he taught Phys ed to my grade 3 girls class. I also was fortunate enough to spend our open house evening with him and Isaak. You don’t know me but Clarence talked so highly of all three of you very often. I specifically remember a conversation we had last spring about how much he cherished his wife and your relationship.

You two must’ve had a great love that will live on forever. Truly a tragic loss and I myself was deeply saddened. I hope you read this and know that your entire family will stay in my mind and prayers for a long time.

My most heart-felt condolences

Christine

Mr. Squires will be deeply missed by our family. Although 7 years have passed since he taught our daughter in grade 1 and 2, he affected us in such a positive and thoughtful way. His confident and caring manner ensured us that our daughter would be taken care of during a difficult transition time. We will always be grateful to have known him. Thank you.

Our deepest sympathy goes out to all who were touched by his presence, especially his family.

My deepest sympathies go out to the family. I taught with Clarence for a year and he was the nicest, most caring and funniest man I know. He always lit up a room and offered advice, and an ear to lend. He went above and beyond to reach all students. He will be greatly missed.

Thoughts an prayers go to his wife an daughters he was an amazing person and teacher there is always one teacher in your life you will always remember and Mr Squires is that teacher he took my daughter under his wing and changed her life for the better as well as helped my family many times rest in peace sweet Mr Squires

I just found out today about his passing. I still can’t believe it. He was an angel among us. I will never forget him. I wish I had found out sooner but nobody told me about it. I regret not visiting Dunrankin since I left. I miss him dearly. Goodbye Mr. Squires.
