Bob Clements

SAN ANSELMO, Calif. | Robert Louis "Bob" Clements, Jr., passed away on December 16, 2014 at his home in San Anselmo, California.
Bob is survived by his sister, Maeola Clements Hagerty of Huntsville, Alabama; his brother William K. ("Bill") Clements of Kennesaw, Georgia; and his cousin, Merwin Davis Crigger of Niceville, Florida. Beloved as "Uncle Bunkley" or "Uncle Bobby", Bob is also survived by a host of nieces, nephews, grand-nieces and grand-nephews in Alabama, Georgia and New York. Bob was the son of the late Robert Louis ("Buster") and Evelyn Kreider Clements of Tuscaloosa, Alabama.
Bob was born on June 6, 1950, after his father returned home from service in World War II. He was raised in Tuscaloosa, was graduated with the Class of 1968 from Tuscaloosa High School, and earned undergraduate and graduate degrees from The University of Alabama School of Commerce & Business. While a student at the University, Bob served as Secretary/Treasurer of the Student Government Association, Business Editor of The Crimson White student newspaper and Features Editor of the Corolla yearbook, and he was active in a variety of organizations, including the Jasons Senior Men's Honorary, The Omicron Delta Kappa National Leadership Honor Society and Sigma Chi Fraternity. Contemporaries will remember Bob as the Chairman and Emcee of the 1970 Corolla Beauty Pageant. His nieces and nephews, who were just 10-15 years younger than Bob, remember visits to "Uncle Bunkley's Duck Pond", which can still be found on campus, and dinners raised- up on upside-down bowls in the seats of chairs at the fraternity house.
Bob's career took him to California with the Government Accounting Office, to Midland, Texas as City Manager, to Austin, Texas, New York, N.Y., and Washington, DC with Price Waterhouse and back to Alabama as a consultant before he retired to a favorite residence he had maintained in California. He always had music playing, roamed galleries and artist's studios and stayed engaged in business and politics. He was a wonderful host in the cities where he lived and was generous with unexpected gifts made by local artists, as well as his counsel and stories of his experiences.
Bob will be buried in his family's plot at Old Live Oaks Cemetery in Selma, Alabama, in a private ceremony at a later date. His family will remember him with memorial gifts to The Culverhouse School of Accountancy at The University of Alabama and The Salvation Army.
