Clyde was born in York, Pennsylvania and resided in the York area most of his life until he retired and settled in the Villages of Cinderberry community in 2014. After the loss of his mother at the age of 3, Clyde was raised by his aunt and uncle, Eleanor and Mark Wagaman. Clyde graduated from York Catholic High School and attended classes at Villanova University. He worked as a supervisor with York Corporation where he met his future wife Miss Lillian Taylor.
