Obituary
William Clinton Bellenger, IV, fondly known as Clint, peacefully passed away on Sunday, February 17, 2019, in Fort Myers, Florida at the young age of 63. Clint was the son of the late William Clinton Bellenger, III, (Pete) and Donna Clayton Bellenger. Clint sadly leaves the love of his life, his devoted companion of 37 years, Bridget King, and their 32-year-old parrot, Schooner. Clint is also survived by a younger brother and a stepmom. Clint was born in Germany as a military baby and lived most of his young life in Alabama and Louisiana. He finished high school in Singapore and went on to serve 3 years in the U.S. Marine Corps also attending the U.S. Naval Academy as an aviation electrician. He then had successful careers in the contracting business as a carpenter as well as in the oil industry. Clint loved life – sailing, scuba diving, woodworking, traveling, cooking, sunsets. There will be no planned services. Simply asking for prayers for Clint and Bridget.
I know you will miss him terribly, Bridget. Me too. I’m so sorry for your loss.
Much Love,

We'll all miss Clint terribly, and we were deeply sorry to learn of his passing. I always enjoyed talking with him as he had so many experiences to draw on. A favorite memory of mine is Christmastime at Mere's with all of us enjoying dessert at the dining table, Gramps playing piano in the background, and there's an image I remember of Clint miming words along to the music with Mere. That's the Clint I think of, and the picture here captures that good nature.
All our thoughts are with you every day.
