| The Daily Courier, Prescott, Arizona Monday, November 03, 2008 Clarence Allen Berg Clarence, you entered this part of your life on May 10, 1930, and left Oct. 30, 2008. We knew you as a loving husband and father, as a fuel engineer at U.S. Steel, as an Administrator for the University of Minnesota, as a creator of beautiful stained glass windows, as a metal engraver, and as a fine art woodworker. We, our family, spent every August in a cabin you built on Gunflint Lake, fishing for lake trout, picking blueberries, and canoeing and portaging on the Granite River. You loved the natural beauty of earth and spent your retirement years studying geology and birds and caring for others. After retirement you and Marilyn moved to Prescott, Ariz. but spent summers in Morgan Park caring for and watching your granddaughter grow from a baby to a teenager. You taught your precious granddaughter, Brianna, to be a wicked card player. Your patience and quiet calmness will be missed by all who knew you. You never stopped learning and sharing. You gave much to those less fortunate and many thank you for doing their taxes as a volunteer at AARP. Children at Big Brothers loved chatting with you. Heart problems slowed you down and you serenely left surrounded by your wife, Marilyn; your children, Mary, Allen and Tara; your granddaughter, Brianna; Allen's wife, Sandy; and Bri's dad, Jose. You left us with our deepest love to be greeted by the fathomless love of the Almighty. Our family, along with many relatives and friends, deeply miss you. Services are private.
