There are at least 42 dead Clarence Sherwoods at rest in the United States. There's apparently at least one live one in Florida. Why don't you call CLARENCE SHERWOOD, 3605 NE 32nd Ave, FT. LAUDERDALE 33308 at 954-630-9829 and see what happens. He could, if he's the right person, either give us direction or answer questions that would save us all a lot of time. I'll check for the dead, but the living are often more helpful. Let me know what happens. Good luck! --Brian ***************************************** Timothy Braswell wrote: > > Thanks, Brian.
