To the editor:
Niles lost another wonderful man our former Mayor Larry Clymer. One of the best Niles ever had – 14 years.
He was a friend, also a former neighbor – always with a smile and helping hand when I founded Four Flags Desert Storm. He was a big, solid supporter to make sure our military service men, women and families got the help they needed – played Santa to many and at Christmas had Dial-A-Ride buses drive citizens around town to view the beautiful scenery that he was so proud of.
Niles had a big part of his heart and it showed.
Larry was to Niles what Tim Russert was to Good Morning America. Our town is mourning and he'll be sadly missed. My heart goes out to his family.
