Born August 15, 1919, in Sandusky, Clarence W. Seavers was one of Erie County’s heroes and treasures.  He was a 1937 graduate of Sandusky High School and attended Firelands College/BGSU for one year.  Clarence served our community in various capacities stretching back six decades.

Clarence was the first African-American postal clerk for the Sandusky Post Office, where he worked for 28 years. A World War II veteran, he served in the U.S. Army Aviation Engineers.  He was inducted into the Ohio Veterans Hall of Fame for his service with the 811^th Aviation Engineering Battalion, 1941-1945, building airfields in the Pacific Theatre.  Clarence was a long-time member of St. Stephens A.M.E. Church, where he was active in the Trustee Helpers Club. He served on many Boards including the Erie County Board of Elections for thirty-five years, Erie County Health Department, Firelands Regional Medical Center, Stein Hospice Service, YMCA, Goodwill Industries, Chamber of Commerce, Boy Scouts and Erie Huron Community Action Commission. He was also a Trustee of the former Providence Hospital Board, life member of the N.A.A.C.P., and was a retired licensed umpire for the Sandusky Babe Ruth League.

The Erie County Democratic Party honored Clarence – also known as ‘Mr. Democrat’ – for his lifetime achievements at a reception and dinner held at Plum Brook Country Club on Friday, February 23, 2007.  The award was presented by Ohio’s newly elected Governor Ted Strickland.  Clarence was well known by all elected officeholders not only in the Sandusky and Erie County areas, but also by those serving in Columbus, throughout the State of Ohio and in Washington D.C.

After a brief illness, Clarence passed away in the early morning hours of Tuesday, April 1, 2008.  The Clarence W. Seavers Citizenship Award celebrates local citizens’ achievements who have served our community tirelessly and unselfishly and who have been trailblazers – just like Clarence.

The Clarence W. Seavers Citizenship Scholarship Fund is available to those students continuing their education in the fields of computer or political sciences.  The Sandusky/Erie County Community Foundation manages the scholarship.  Contributions may be made to:  Sandusky/Erie County Community Foundation, 135 East Washington Row, Sandusky, OH 44870.                                                            

“I just tried to give something back.
As long as you’re able,
you can never give back too much.”
