I lived next door to Beaver Clendennen for may years growing up on Clearview in Tarrytown. Always enjoyed his company and admired his curiosity, especially with anything mechanical. One day he drove home in a used Porsche and thereby established a dream for me that I finally realized some 50+ years later. Thanks Beaver.
Prayers to the family.
