February 10, 1966 to December 26, 2023
On February 10, 1966, to the parentage of Clarence A. Graham, Sr and Sadie M. Taylor,
Clarence A. Graham Jr. lovingly known to many as “Punkin”, was born. He was the only boy and the middle child of this blessed union.
As a young child, he professed his life to Christ at the Pleasant Grove Baptist Church under the leadership of the late Rev. Marcus C. Barron. In his adult life, he attended the Union Valley Missionary Baptist Church under the pastoral guidance of the late Rev. Marcus C. Barron and now under Rev. Edward Johnson.
Clarence is preceded in death by his parents, Clarence and Sadie Graham. He leaves to cherish his memories: his wife, Carol; daughter, Quindrea (Kira); step-daughter, Wendi; grandchildren, Greg, Tamia, Laquint, and Londyn; two sisters, Samantha Smith and April (Christopher) Rose; special friend/brother, Kenneth Henderson; and loving nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts, uncles, friends and a caring community in Stallings Addition.
Clarence attended elementary and high school in the Terrell ISD. He was a graduate of the
Terrell High School Class of 1984. He attended trade school through the National Education Center for several months as an Electronic Technician.
During his occupational career, he worked at ITW Paslode for several years until the company closed. He then decided to be self-employed in lawn care and handyman services. He provided good, honest work throughout the Stallings Addition Community and parts of Terrell for several years until his parents took ill, and he became the primary caregiver for them. Clarence took pride in being an upstanding citizen of the community, a dedicated friend, and always helping others.
