Clarence,
You were the first; a statistic in the minds of some. But you have paved the way for all of the Agents who have learned what "Honor First" means. We are sad that you died too early and we're proud to call ourselves your brothers and sisters in green. Keep watching ... you'll cut our sign as soon as we cross that Great Silent River. Patrol Agent Frank J. Hawkins

You were my grandfather. I am the second
daughter of Clarence Thomas Childress. I
am very proud of my grandfather and what
he endured in the military and my prayers
for all military people are with them.
