Birddog enjoyed life…telling jokes and his classic Clete stories to area troopers and deputies not only brought smiles to their faces, but his too. He liked spending time outside, especially going fishing and hunting. His most highlighted hunting memory was being with Shelby when she shot her first buck - an 8 pointer! Most of all, Cletus loved and treasured spending time with his family. His great-granddaughter Lucy “lil bit”, was sure to bring a smile to his face.
