Clarence W. Graham Jr. "Rock"

May 25, 1936 — January 24, 2020

Clarence W. Graham Jr. "Rock" passed away January 24, 2020 after a long illness. In his early years, Rock was one of the star football players for Greensburg High School. Along with his brother George, they took their football skills and started the Greensburg Peewee football league in 1958. In addition to football, he loved to golf and bowl, helping many people to improve their games. Clarence was also the ultimate handyman being able to build and fix anything, and enjoyed working in his beautiful yard. He began his career as a car salesman working his way up to finance manager and then to general manager. After retiring, he worked part time for a golf course. Clarence proudly served his country in the Air National Guard.

He leaves behind his loving wife of 61 years, Pat. Together they had 3 children, Mitchell (Lyn) Graham, Michele (Frank) Dittig, Mark (Michelle) Graham; 6 grandchildren, Rachel, Dana, Tyler, Anna-Bridgette, Eric, Kateland; 2 great-grandsons, Everett & Arlo; and a great-granddaughter on the way.
