Clair Rowland Little, a beloved friend and community member, was promoted to glory on December 16, 2023, at the age of 87. Born on April 2, 1936, in Orofino, Idaho, Clair departed from this world to embrace his Savior in the comfort of his Butte, Montana home, encircled by loving friends.

Clair dedicated his early years to serving his country, first in the U.S. Army and later in the Marine Corps. His commitment took him to Korea and on numerous deployments, marking a period of valor and sacrifice.

Post-military, Clair joined his father in the family auto body shop in Orofino. His path also led him to a role in security with an armored car service. Away from work, Clair found solace and joy in the serene surroundings of his family's cabin at Buffalo Hump in the Idaho woods.

Clair is most remembered for long-standing devoted service to the Salvation Army. His journey with the organization saw him move across the county, taking on the envoy role and eventually retiring with a pension. His life was enriched when he met Annie a fellow Salvation Army employee, who became his beloved wife. Though Annie passed before him, their love story remains a cherished memory.

Clair's dedication continued in Butte, where he volunteered at the local Salvation Army office, playing a pivotal role in its operations, ensuring it remained open and available to the people of Butte for years to come. Clair's community spirit also shone through his membership with the Silver Bow Kiwanis, where he forged lasting friendships.

Leaving behind a legacy of kindness, faith, and friendship, Clair touched many lives through his ministry and compassionate deeds. He will be fondly remembered and deeply missed by numerous friends, both those he met along his journey and those whose lives he transformed with his gospel ministry.

Services are currently pending and will be announced by Duggan Dolan Mortuary.
