Mr. Clerius Innocent came, saw, and departed for the house of his Almighty Father. Ladies and gentlemen, family and friends, Today, we gather to celebrate the life of a remarkable man, a loving father, a devoted brother, a cherished significant other, and a loyal friend.

Mr. CLERIUS INNOCENT, born on 7/19/1941, has fought a good fight, has finished the race and kept his faith. He passed away on October 4th at 13:45 at his city of residence of Pompano Beach at the age of 82. He was the distinctive son of the late Emmanuel Innocent and the youngest of the late Berthe Michaud. Mr. Clerius left behind his legacy of honesty, pride, and integrity to name a few.

He had an innate ability to make others feel valued and heard, always wearing a warm smile. His gentle demeanor and compassionate heart endeared him to all who knew him. Whether as a father, a brother, an uncle, a cousin, or a friend, he approached relationships with unwavering love and selflessness. As a father, Clerius was a source of wisdom and unwavering support. He instilled in his children the importance of kindness, hard work, and empathy. His guidance was marked by patience and understanding, creating a nurturing environment where everyone could flourish. As a grandfather with quiet grace, we found a depth of wisdom that transcended words. His softspoken nature was a testament to the immense strength that resides in gentle hearts. He was a guiding light of tranquility, a steady presence. His quiet words held a profound resonance. His kindness knew no bounds, and his actions spoke volumes, touching his grandchildren’s souls in ways words could never capture. In his soft-spoken manner, he gifted us not only with his presence but with the invaluable lesson of eloquence found in simplicity. As a brother, Tonton was a steadfast companion. He shared laughter and dreams, providing a shoulder to lean on during life's challenges. His bond with his siblings was a testament to the enduring power of family, reminding us of the strength found in love and unity. At home he exemplified devotion. He demonstrated mutual respect, understanding, and unwavering support. As a friend, Ti Cle was a rare treasure. He had an extraordinary capacity to listen, to empathize, and to offer a helping hand. His friendships were not just connections, but deep, meaningful relationships built on trust and mutual respect. He had the ability to make everyone around him feel valued, teaching us the profound impact a kind heart can have on the world. Today, as we say goodbye to Tonton, let us carry forward the lessons he imparted through his humble and sweet nature. Let us be kinder, more patient, and more compassionate, remembering the beautiful soul we were blessed to know.
