Nicholas has demonstrated a work ethic that is seldom exhibited by young people these days. Since the age of 7—the year his Grandad Dick gave him his first bucket calf—Nicholas has immersed himself in the beef cattle industry, and he hasn’t looked back. Showing and managing one’s own cattle would have been enough for most young men. However, Nicholas also maintained his own lawn care service through four years of high school. And as if managing two businesses weren’t enough, he began cutting, baling, and selling hay in his “spare time.” Today, Nicholas continues to find new ways to devote himself to the agricultural industry. Most recently, his ingenuity has led him to become a dealer for Lone Pony Cedar Shavings which sells cedar fiber bedding. Nicholas served as President of the Inola FFA Chapter during his sophomore, junior, and senior years, and he earned his State FFA Degree in April of 2015. He is a part of the Show Team at Connors State College, and he still continues to participate in all the major shows. Nicholas has attended nearly all of the Regional and Junior National Simmental shows, and he currently serves as Vice President of the Oklahoma Junior Simmental Simbrah Association. At his core, Nicholas has always been a polite young man who never fails to carry a smile on his face. No matter what is asked of him, he is an individual who never hesitates to lend a hand. It is safe to say that Nicholas is a junior member who, in time, will become an active adult member who provides unmeasurable value to the Association. Thanks for the memories Nicholas!

Clarence was an ever familiar face in the Oklahoma Simmental Simbrah Association. He served on the OKSSA Board for many years. Clarence was always eager to share his innovative ideas with the association, and he strived to make it the best it could be. Whether it was to give of his time or money, you could always count on Clarence and his wife, Juanita, to sponsor whatever was needed. He invested himself in mentoring the juniors of the association, often remarking that he looked to the juniors as the “Future of Oklahoma Simmental.” After an impressive career with Phillips Petroleum, Clarence and Juanita retired to their ranch south of Bartlesville, Oklahoma, where they raised Simmental cattle. CJS Farms carried the motto “Quality Not Quantity”, and his life was truly full of quality. Many of us were proud to call him “friend” and Clarence will truly be missed.
