Robert Prichard Clement

April 20, 1944 - April 29, 2015

Robert Prichard Clement, known to those whose lives he touched as “Prichard,” left the cares and worries of the world for the rest of us to manage without him on Wednesday, April 22, 2015. He will always be loved and missed by his wife Debbi and his families. His surviving family includes daughter Katherine Clement, grand-daughter Nicole Clement, grandson Christopher Stahl and great-grandchildren Aiden, Chaley and Kali of Boulder, CO. He also leaves son and daughters, Prichard Allen Clement, Laura Clement, Lynn Controneo and their mother, Kay Clement - their grandsons – Devin, Caramon, Raistlyn and Haven- and granddaughter Emma Piper of Amherst, ME. Prichard was full of grace, loved us all: and his love for everyone was forever unconditional and never ending . . . forever, irreplaceable. His professional life was full of achievements that are not necessary to list; and that in the end, all of those achievements pale in the shadow of the gift of love, laughter and success he gave to so many that filled the chapters of his life. Prichard was always a great man – in his greatest moments, his weakest moments, darkest hours and brightest days. We are all so lucky to have traveled the path of his life with him, even if the distance was only a little way. We are all blessed to have the candlelight of those wonderful memories of love, laughter, friendship as well as the cross purposes of life. The good, the bad, and the ugly memories are all made of gold – he wanted you to know he was just Prichard. Not perfect – just Prichard . . . working his way through life, just like you and “me. It was a magnificent life, well-lived. Prichard, “You are the best there ever was – the best there ever will be.”
