When Clint was 3 years old his family moved to Providence where he has since resided. He was educated in local schools and having a curious mind he continued to expand and enhance his knowledge throughout his life.

He generously shared his time, talents, skills, and knowledge and has been a mentor and counselor to many.

His 38 ½ years of employment at Thiokol were both challenging and rewarding as the industry evolved from research and development to production of defense hardware and eventually to Space Shuttle Boosters. At retirement, in 1997, Clint was Superintendent of Space Operations in the Control Center.
