Born August 14, 1926 and received into God's greater glory on July 22, 2011. Clyde was a man of honor, duty, and a tremendous life spirit for his family, his God, his country, and his many passions.
Clyde was born in Pocatello, Idaho. His youth was spent, fishing, hunting, and playing baseball in the hills of Southern Idaho. Clyde enlisted early (16) to do his duty for his country serving in the Navy during World War II.
After the war, he went on to college and got his degree from the University of Utah and played in the marching band. Clyde met his lifetime companion and soon to be wife of sixty-one years, the beautiful Betty Ollis while at the U.
Clyde and Betty met our Lord Jesus Christ at First Baptist Church of Salt Lake and was an active member for fifty-seven years. Clyde rarely missed a Sunday and his duty to God and passion for the Lord were a hallmark in his life. After love for his church and his family, Clyde loved to fish. He has fished all over the world.
Clyde wasn't just a philosopher/lecturer parent, Clyde was a rower and helper. He let you choose your passions and helped you succeed in whatever you chose. Clyde loved to work and worked hard. He founded C. T. Burnett and Assoc. in South Salt Lake.
He was a proud member of Kaibab #25 Mason Lodge and member of the El Kalah Shrine Band. Clyde joins the apple of his eye Brenda Nelson (daughter) to be with our savior.
Clyde is survived by his wife Betty, his children Ken (Ann), Bruce (Dana), Kelly Nelson (son-in-law) of Salt Lake; and Lisa (Mark) of Chicago; and eight grandchildren.
