My family and I didn’t know Mr. Clowney personally but we enjoyed watching his cooking show. Our thoughts and prayers to his family and friends, he will be truly missed!
We never met Mr. Clowney but wanted you to know that we watched his cooking shows all the time. He had such a presence and seemed so homespun and real. He obviously enjoyed cooking and sharing his recipes. We loved watching the show and will miss him. Our hearts go out to Mrs. Clowney and the Clowney family. God Bless you all.
