Clarence Alfred Pouch III. Father was born on December 3, 1906 and passed away on April 11,
1987. He was, by all
accounts, an adventuresome and rowdy young man whose thirst for
adventure led him down dark paths. To his credit and wisdom
of maturity however, he
abandoned those darkened paths and came into the light as the years wore on. He was indeed a
man
of many faces.
I have often wanted to write of some of the things that Father and I talked about, and of some of
the
things I saw first hand, so I am writing the following short chapters, not only in his memory,
but for those thousands
of people he touched through his bible teachings, to the hundreds who
knew him and called him friend, and to the children
whom he loved so much.
In his time, Father was bigger than life........and twice as animated!
My brother Tony and I
have recently discovered even more amazing things about our Father.
Secrets that have been kept for nearly 75 years. I
am sure that we will continue to learn even
more as the days go on. You see, Father never once tried to be something he
wasn’t, he just
would never let you know what that might have been.
I present you, Clarence
A. Pouch, aka, “Doc.”
