After retiring from Franklin Insurance (1995), Clarke (age 60) and Patt (age 56) purchased an RV to travel across the U.S. (Sept. 1997), where they eventually settled for five years in Key West, FL (at 6700 Maloney Avenue, Key West, FL 33040). Unfortunately, the medication for his heart arrhythmia became ineffective, forcing him to have a heart pacemaker. Also, during their time in Key West, FL, Patt had begun developing some early symptoms associated with dementia. Clarke and Patt sold the RV and returned to Toccoa where they rented an apartment (at 18 Destination Drive, Toccoa, GA 30577, in a complex called "Andrew's Apartments"). | After retiring from Franklin Insurance (1995), Clarke (age 60) and Patt (age 56) purchased an RV to travel across the U.S. During Sept. 1997, they decided to settle in Key West, FL (at 6700 Maloney Avenue, Key West, FL 33040).

Shortly after Patt's death, on January 30, 2007, Clarke bought 2 duplexes (at 143 Remsdale Street, Toccoa, GA). He lived in one unit while renting out the remaining three (to provide a supplemental retirement income). His new home was very near (within walking distance of) the [[http://www.elks.org/lodges/home.cfm?lodge=1820|Toccoa Elk's club]] (Lodge 1820), where he played cards (Gin) with his friends every weekday afternoon at 4:00pm. He often went to a gym in the morning and would, when timing and weather permitted, enjoy playing golf with his grand-daughter, Katie Grace Randall. | Shortly after Patt's death, on January 30, 2007, Clarke bought 2 duplexes (at 143 Remsdale Street, Toccoa, GA).
