He was preceded in death by his parents, Anthony and Lillian Clevenger; brother, Sherman “Peanut” Clevenger; sisters, Nancy Clevenger and Diana Clevenger; and stepson, Karl Kyle.

He is survived by his wife, Diane Clevenger; children, Jeff Clevenger, Drace (Suzanna) Clevenger, Stephanie (Jeff) Clevenger Shafer, and Helen Williams; grandchildren, Mirabella Clevenger, Lillian Clevenger, Lydia Shafer, Naomi Shafer, Christal (Rodney) Williams Frazier, Cynthia (Landon) Jenkins, and Cassidy Williams; great-grandchildren, Karlia Williams, Rilan Frazier, Jaxen Frazier, Christian Williams, Cyra Crutcher, Brooke Crutcher, Cahlie Crutcher, Lylah Jenkins, George Jenkins, and Cimbrie Aranda; and sister-in-law, Carol Clevenger.
