John Clarkson lit a candle

“In loving memory of Clyde Ogg, I knew Clyde from the time we met in kindergarten. We were friends all through grammar school and high school. Clyde was the quintessential "good guy", and he grew to be a good man all his life. I hadn't heard from Clyde in years when he called me in November to talk about friends who had passed away. Now he has joined them. I loved Clyde and will for the rest of my life. In a certain way, I feel closer to him now than ever.”

“On behalf of the Gray family—Jeff, Henry, Francis Gray Corwin, and me, Lawrence—please accept our deepest condolences. For more than 50 years, Clyde was like family to us: a steadfast friend, brilliant advocate, and a man of rare integrity. He used the law to protect the vulnerable and dignify the forgotten—exactly why America stays free. His counsel, humor, and courage will be missed, but his example will keep guiding us. We’re praying for peace and strength for all who loved him.”
