    To The Family of Clifford Ray Lowe: So sorry to see that your Loved One has passed away. I don’t know if any of you will remember me so I must tell you that I am Marilyn (Shehorn) Tarbutton I lived in Illinois until June, 1959 and moved away to Nevada. I went to Berry Grade School and Wayne City High School so I remember the Lowe and Leathers Family of years ago. I know that all of you will miss him but remember the good times you had with him over the years as the memories are so precious. May God bless each one of you at this time and hold you in his loving arms. With my deepest sympathy and lots of love, Marilyn

    Dear family of Clifford Ray,
    This is Carl Weaver and it’s 11 am on Thursday and I just found out that I’m missing the funeral. I seldom use social media due to my lack of tech know how so here I sit as the opportunity for showing my respect for Clifford Ray and expressing my sympathy to you all slips away. I sincerely apologize for my absence because I certainly wanted to be there!
    I’ve lifted you all up to the Lord in prayer since hearing about your loss! Please forgive me for not being there!

  7. Carol Boyd / July 3, 2023 at 2:37 pm

    John and I would like to express our deepest sympathy during your time of bereavement. Your cousin, Sharon Oestretcher, had been lifting you and your family up in prayer at our church, Beaver Creek Church in Floyd County, VA.
