Clyde was loved by his family, friends, students, neighbors and cats. He was a Korean War era veteran, cyclist and retired Professor Emeritus of Mathematics at The New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology, where he taught for 32 years. He is best remembered by his former students for his trademark "vandyke" beard and his personable teaching style. In his own words, "My goal was to generate an enthusiasm for learning in my students. I tried to show them where the value lies in what they're studying and where the joy is in it as well." Clyde's care has been entrusted to Riverside Funeral Home of Albuquerque 225 San Mateo NE 505-764-9663.
