Over de auteur (2018)

Clarence E. Whipple Jr. better known as “Bud” was born on January 4, 1928 two years after his road companion Old Dammit.

Bud would grow up in the town he loved and lived all his life. Connersville, Indiana.

He would marry his high school sweet heart and soul mate for 68 years, Mary Catherine Dorgan, who passed in 2017. They would have two daughters he loved and thought the world of: Melania and Cindy. Bud and Mary also loved their four grand daughters and their six great grand children.

Bud was a successful businessman. He along with his father, Clarence Sr., built and designed Sparkle Car Wash. He owned the car wash for 34 years.

He would run for judge and city council. Bud was a 32 Degree Mason, Shriner, Elks, and Rotarian and held high offices in these organizations.

Clarence E. Whipple, Jr will most be remembered for getting donations from individuals, local businesses, and organizations, so street lights and cement park benches could be placed on a major section of Park Rd which would run up to 30 Street. His memory will literally burn bright in the city he loved.
