Much belated I found out about Clendon's passing because I was searching for information about him online because of so many funny and fond memories of him going to junior high and high school together in Checotah. Clendon was a good friend, happy, fun, loved life. We went fishing and camping out on Lake Eufaula with Mike Lollis a number of times. I'm so saddened by Clendon's passing and pray for blessings on his wife and family.

Clendon will be greatly missed. I followed him throughout the hospital during my clinical rotation at St. Francis and he taught me a tremendous amount while managing ventilators. He always had a story to tell and never ceased to put a smile on your face. Salute old friend.
Olena the service was a wonderful tribute to your husband. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Clendon touched so many lives and helped so many people in his profession as a respiratory therapist. He not only worked full time in the ICU as a therapist caring for critically ill patients for many years, but also worked for many years as an instructor for Tulsa Community College Respiratory Care program. He shared his knowledge, skills and his time to his co-workers, patients, families of patients, and students. He is greatly respected in his professional community and will be greatly missed. It has been an honor and a pleasure to work with him over the years.
I worked with Clendon at Muskogee Regional back in the late 80’s when he was Clinical Coordinator for the department. Clendon was a resource of knowledge for nurses and TJC students at the time. He taught the Doc’s how to run and manage ventilators up until the time of his passing. He is a great loss for the Respiratory Community. My heart is sadden and grieves for the family and other Respiratory Therapist’s.
Clendon was one of a kinda and he will be missed more than words can express. I believe there is a brand new new star in Heaven now. God must have needed someone with a sense of humor. I loved when he told the story about me having the same name as his ex. I know he liked to tease me about it, and I’m glad I had that experience with this special man.
I’ve known Clendon for many years from working together at SFH. He had such a great sense of humor and always seemed to see the bright side of life. He consistently put the patient first in every situation and was a kind and compassionate man. His talents and his outgoing personality will be missed. My memories of him will be cherished. Thoughts and prayers to his wife and family.
So very sorry we cannot be there for my cousin’s service – we are 8+ hrs. away and my husband
is in bad health. Our lives did not get to meet very often after we became adults, married, and
everyone (cousins) moved to different states. It is sad that families get so separated as the
years come & go. We send our most sincere sympathy to Clendon’s family.
