Clarence Kade

Clarence L. Kade, 87, of Quakertown, passed away on Wednesday, November 14, 2018 at Manor Care in Bethlehem. He was the loving husband of the late Deanna D. (Crotty) Kade. Born in McComas, WV, he was a son of the late Charlie & Etta (Westmoreland) Kade. Clarence joined the U.S. Army and served during the Korean War. He made his way up the ranks with his final ranking as Master Sergeant. He was active in the boxing program and was in charge of the mess hall while stationed in Germany. He was a member of the unit that climbed Pike's Peak with a mule pack team while stationed in Colorado. He worked as a Machinist for Ametek, U.S. Gauge division located in Sellersville, PA. Everything with Clarence was super-sized, so if you asked for a small piece of cake, you'd be getting a large piece. He was a big Phillies fan and never missed a game. He was also glad he got to see the Philadelphia Eagles win their first Superbowl. He loved his family and especially his grandchildren Lauren & Logan. He also cared for animals and the animals seemed to love him as well. Surviving is his son: Brian, wife Rachel of Bethlehem and grandchildren: Lauren & Logan. He was predeceased by siblings: George Delphon, Charlie Gilbert, Mary Lucy, Everett Lee, Roscoe Leonard, Dorothy Annie, Ola Fuastina, Lewis Shelby, Kirby Carson, Paul Stanley, Claude Douglas, Howard Clayton, Charlotte Etta, Donald Edward and grandparents: George W. & Mary Maude (Austin) Kade.
