Clarence Evans BeezelyMr. Clarence Evans Beezley passed away on March 22 after a brief illness. Clarence was employed for over 40 years with the Game Fish and Oyster Commission, which later became Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. He served as a Game Warden in the Texas Panhandle and Central Texas. When the need arose for someone with a law enforcement background, but an extensive knowledge of waterfowl he was asked to manage the Sheldon Reservoir Game Preserve near Houston. He later moved to LaPorte, Texas and served as the Information and Education officer, where he contributed numerous articles to magazines and newspapers. In the early 70s Clarence was transferred to Austin to manage the statewide game hot line. He was famous for his knowledge of waterfowl and game laws not to mention his ability to retrieve in an instance from memory information such as when bow season opens in some remote Texas county or the number of species and habits of the Texas Road Runner.

While in Austin he was divorced and then later married Shirley Heudier. After 29 years of happiness Shirley preceded him in death in 2008. Clarence had an interest in wide variety of subjects. He was humble, cheerful, intelligent, fun loving and always very charming.

He was a great role model for his children.
