It's a sad day for the Shuckums family. Our closest friend and favorite cook, Clarence, went to be with his Lord yesterday after a long illness. For 22 years, Clarence was the driving force in the Shuckums kitchen, not only cooking great food, but mentoring countless employees in a myriad of ways. Everybody new Clarence; locals and visitors alike loved chatting with him when he came out from the kitchen to visit. From his love of food (both cooking and eating!), to his laugh and especially his heart for others, everything about him was larger than life! He'll be desperately missed, and our only comfort is knowing that he's in a better Place…but we hope he's still going to be commanding our kitchen from Heaven!
Mack Carter, Owner of Shuckums, said, "If it wasn't for Clarence, I wouldn't be here today. He helped me to raise my girls; helped Samantha do her math homework in junior high. He was the heartbeat of this operation. He loved the Lord; we talked about it often. He's gone to be with God. We'll miss him."
As more details about memorial and funeral arrangements are made, we will continue to update this website.
We'll still be open, though, cookin' and shuckin' just like he'd want us to...Please feel free to stop in, say hi and have a bite to eat while reliving good times with him!
