Clyde N. Casagranda passed away in Townsend, MT on June 15th, 2021, He was surrounded in love by his devoted wife and caregiver, Anna, and wonderful friend, Deena Gobbs.
Clyde was born in Butte, MT on December 30th, 1929, to Guido and Dolly Casagranda. He married his loving wife, Anna Hudson, in 1994 and they had 27 wonderful years together. Clyde was the father of 6 children from a previous marriage to Rita McLaughlin.
Clyde started working at a young age in the bakery business and then went on to sell for Jerry’s and Montana Mobile Homes. He worked late into life helping at Riley Stove Company for his dear friend, Orville Riley. There were not many, if any, jobs he was afraid of, although they were known to come with some swear words. He worked hard and played hard, which was evident in his many successful hunting and fishing adventures. The deep friendships he formed through them were many and lasted a lifetime.
Clyde is survived by his wife Anna, sons Norman (Tammy) Casagranda, Robert (Kathy) Casagranda, daughters Judy (Bill) Lobb and Rita (Kerry) Weightman, and daughter-in-law Paula Casagranda. He has 16 grandchildren, 18 great grandchildren, numerous nieces, and nephews. He is preceded in death by his parents, brother Earl (Louise) Casagranda, sons, Andy and Glen Casagranda.

Clyde was a gentle man and a faithful friend to my dad. Dad treasured his friendship. I’m praying for your comfort, strength, and help from the Lord, Anna.
As the psalmist David said, “I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.” Psalm 121:1-2
Much love to you and the family,
