Clarence was born on November 27, 1930 in Pulaski County, KY to the late Roscoe and Vera (Leigh) Gastineau. He was a 1949 graduate of Francesville High School and proudly served his country in the United States Air Force from 1949-1950. On March 1, 1953, he married the beautiful love of his life, Dixie Lee Moncel, in Francesville, IN. and she was at his side when he passed. Clarence worked as a fork lift driver for Rea Magnet Wire for 27 years before retiring in 1987. He was the first president of East Tipp Summer Recreation in 1966 and later inducted into the ETSR Hall of Fame. He was known as The King of Duct Tape, saying “That’ll hold it!”...even on a broken tomato plant or small tree. He had a quick wit, big heart, twinkling blue eyes, and a mischievous smile. Some of his favorite pastimes were spending time with his family, watching sports, playing Euchre, mowing the lawn, fishing, bonfires, riding the grands around on the lawn mower, and attending all the kids’ sports activities. Content with the small things, he was so very proud of his big Gastineau family and the big unconditional love that holds it together. He is survived by six children; one brother; 15 grandchildren; and 19 great-grandchildren. Clarence was preceded in death by his parents; two sisters, Alma Long and Betty Weaver; and one brother, Jerrel Gastineau. A private family service will be held at Hippensteel Funeral Home. Private Interment will follow at Tippecanoe Memory Gardens. A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
