Obituary of Charles B. Clem
Charles B. Clem, known to some of his coworkers as "Charlie," passed away peacefully at home surrounded by his family on June 19th, 2020 at around 5:30 am at the age of 74 years after battling dementia due to a kidney disease. Born in Springfield, Illinois, Charles spent most of his childhood in the ISSCS home and later joined the US Air Force where he served his country for about 9 years. During his service he spent some time in Azores, Portugal where he met and fell in love with his wife, Lucia. Together they moved to Utah for some time and then finally settled in Canada, Ontario where he acquired a career at the TTC. He was a man of deep faith who provided his family with all the things he never got to experience as a child and will be remembered for his gentle mild manner and friendliness. Charles will be dearly missed and forever remembered by his wife of 50 years, Lucia, children Susan (Angelo), Charles Jr. (Lynda), Stephen, and 2 granddaughters Elyssa and Alanna.
