Clive's obituary
Clive Antony Ulen of Mechanicsburg, Pa fell asleep in death May 29, 2021 at Englewood Health Hospital, Englewood, New Jersey. Tony bravely fought against his illness of MRSA, with wife, Teddi, by his side.
Tony was preceded in death by his father Lewis J Ulen and stepmother Gloria M Ulen, his adored mother, Millicent Hooper, mother-in- law , Mary Louise Graves and brother Lance Wayne Ulen, and his best "buddy" brother- in - law John W Graves.
Tony is survived by his cherished wife of 31 years, Theresa "Teddi" Ulen, father and mother-in-law, John and Helen Graves, son, Jerron and wife Jlee, daughter's, Debra Lynn, Eisa and spouse Ralph, Renee and spouse Kiyasi. The most beloved 7 grandchildren in the world, and 5 great grandchildren, all who forever are the delight of his heart. His cousins, Jake and wife Joyce Hooper, Alice and husband Dutch Schultze. Tony will be forever loved and remembered by a host of other family members and friends.
He was a graduate of the former John Harris High School, Lincoln University, People's College and Antioch Law University.
Tony's employment history included Representative of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Governor's Office Human Relations Commission. His love of law began with the esteemed law firm of Haight, Dickson, Brown & Bonesteel, where as a paralegal he assisted managing partners in class action torts and in court litigation. Upon passing the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Bar, Tony began private practice as a criminal defense attorney. His many accomplishments as a defense attorney involved his own case against the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, before the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, whereby it was ruled, he had been prosecuted by means of "ambush". So yes, he made history as a criminal defense attorney, for himself, but also successful fought and won for the rights of his clients.
It was Saturday, November 19th, 1994 at the Assembly Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses located in Grantville, Pennsylvania, that Tony made known publicly his complete, unreserved and unconditional dedication through Jesus Christ to do the will of our Creator, Jehovah God. Tony's baptism was witnessed by his mother, Millicent, wife Teddi, daughter Renee, along with over 700 other attendees. Thus began a new life of fulfillment, upon being baptized, as one of Jehovah's Witnesses. This act, this new quest, for righting wrongs, justice and speaking truth was finding a reality, to guide him his lifetime. The wisdom and knowledge gained, allowed him, as a student of the Bible to continue his journey in helping others to have the joy he now embraced.... he was a full-time pioneer, served as a ministerial servant, supported missionaries and taught others about our Creators purpose for mankind. Tony told me to tell everyone who asked, what was one of his wishes, and what he considered to be his greatest accomplishment. Tony stated, his greatest accomplishment, was learning about our Creator and accepting the truth as recorded in the Bible, which opened the door to finding a genuine purpose in life, that was the most rewarding experience he could have ever imagined, and his wish was, that everyone should go study the Bible with Jehovah's Witnesses and be written down in Jehovah Gods book of remembrance. Malachi 3:16❤️
