Arizona. Clinton was a native of Arizona who grew up with his two
brothers Richard and Norman Dudley (both deceased) living in several
Arizona towns until settling in Payson in 1953.

maintenance welding business and later enjoyed working for the Mohave
County jail as a maintenance supervisor before his retirement.

especially deer hunting and was happiest when he was enjoying these
activities with his family and dogs.

greatly loved by all who knew him, especially his family who were
close to him throughout his life.
