Clint was an avid Mississippi State fan and, even in his last days, followed his beloved Bulldogs in all sports.  He loved spending time in his garden and gifting the plentiful bounty it produced. Passionate about animals, he spent many hours taking care of his farm pets and fostering for local humane societies and animal rescues.  In addition, he was passionate about watching his grandchildren and great-grandchildren participate in activities and play sports. He loved traveling with family and making life-long memories with them.
