Clarence Mahon Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
As a sports fan, he cheered on the Detroit Tigers baseball and Notre Dame football team, and he also enjoyed attending Eastern Michigan University football and basketball games with his best friend, Chuck. Clarence was a dedicated member of his church, where he sang with powerful enthusiasm and served as an usher for over 40 years. Clarence's life was marked by his love for his family, his faith, and his community. He is preceded by his parents; a grandson: Brandon; and three siblings: William, Zane and Michael.
To cherish his memory, he leaves his wife, Mary; children Lisa (Dennis) Staten, Patrick (Margaret) Mahon, and Heather Mahon; grandchildren Eric, Jason, Justin, Jordan, Joshua, Alec, and Kailah; and great-grandchildren Alyssa, Eston, Blake, Addison, Rylee, Ren, and Colton. If you knew him, you loved him. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
