Pattersonville- Aaron Monroe Clindinin, 69 of Pattersonville, New York passed away Friday, September 11, 2020 at Pathways Nursing and Rehabilitation Center after a long illness. Born in New York, New York on May 30, 1951 to Count and Helen Clindinin, he spent his early years in South Carolina with his grandmother, Evelyn Greene. After returning to New York City, he lived on the upper west side where he established lifelong friendships while he attended Holy Name of Jesus School and Cardinal Hayes High School where he distinguished himself in track and field. While working towards his B. A. in History from Union College in Schenectady NY, Aaron met Jacqueline Brandow who became his wife of 43 years. An industrious worker, Aaron held various jobs throughout the years finishing his career as a systems analyst with Key Services Corp. Survived by his wife Jacqueline, sisters Naomi and Millicent and brothers Howard, Ronald and Eugene, as well as nieces and nephews, Aaron will be remembered for his funny stories, his quick wit, playing football in the street with neighborhood children, and hosting his big city nieces and nephews for summer visits where, to their delight, they discovered more than cows. IN MEMORY OF DAYS GONE BY Saddened thoughts they do abound On each important day And as we make our forward trek We see a different way A little insight, a few new plans New thoughts, new hopes and dreams We don’t appear to move at all What is, is not as seems There really are good reasons For each untimed event And life it does afford us Short time to pine, repent As we move on at our snail’s pace We inch a little nearer To what? We sense, yet feel unsure But know it will be dearer Dearer than the things we have And those we think we’ve lost Our goal is to achieve this thing With little or no cost Our minds do know just what is best For each of us we’re sure Our hearts are what was given us To help us to endure Although we know it’s right for us We still think with a sigh The lord does move in such strange ways And we’ll never quite know why. — Jacqueline Clindinin There will be no service at this time.
