Lost a great Tiger alum recently

One of my older brothers, a 1977 Clemson grad, passed away the Sunday before last. He was a member of Beta Theta Pi and a Forestry major. His wife/widow is a Clemson alum as well. Throwing this out there in the event any of you think you may have known him from the scant information I'm comfortable putting online. Tmail me if you think you knew him and I can confirm.
He had just turned 70 a few weeks before. Out of 7 of us siblings, he's the first one we've lost, so it's been tough. Our mom, who married a Clemson grad as well, is also dealing with losing her first child. She's 93, and he was 70, but he was still her child. She told me, in tears, that she was there when he took his first breath, and she was there when he took his last. Please keep our family in your prayers. Thanks, Tiger family!

Beta Theta Pi was an academic Fraternity wasn't it? I was in an academic Fraternity and pretty sure it was Beta Theta Pi.

I was 8 when he graduated, so all I can remember is our dad used to kind of make fun of it and call it Baked Potato Pie!

I’m so sorry to hear the sad news. What is your brother’s name? I most certainly knew him as I was a 1976 grad and a member of Beta Theta Pi.
May your brother rest in peace.
Regards,
Ken Jackson
