Cloyse was a loving Christian, family man, and friend to all. His love for the Lord was genuine, and his career as a pastor was a perfect fit, allowing him to uplift everyone he met with his smile and charisma. One of his favorite ways to praise the Lord was through his gift of music. Whether pickin’ with buddies or on his own, playing the guitar brought as much joy to himself as to those around him.
As Judy and Cloyse leave this earth together, we are comforted by our sure faith that they are reunited with their Lord. Today we remember and cherish them both as we say goodbye to them for a while until we see them again in our heavenly home.
