  This is the story of my Dad. Clarence Leo Lemire. I decided to write this, when I found out one of his Granddaughters told me, she only met him twice, and she said hardly any of her siblings knew him at all. So in order for them to know him, and who he was, I shall dig into my memories and my brothers, and others who have known him while I was growing up. In hopes that you will know him better. I am his first born son in his second family, I am Clarence Leo Lemire Jr. Because they didn't want me stuck with the name Junior, they nicknamed me Bud. Seems many in our family had a nickname. My Dad was Clarence Leo Lemire, born December 21, 1907 in Marquette, Michigan. He was the son of Camille Lemire and Delia Pinard. Camille was born in Quebec, Delia was born in Champion, Marquette, Michigan.  They married July 3, 1893 in Marquette, Michigan.                                         1943 they celebrated their 50th Wedding Anniversary
