Patrick H. ("Pat") Clancy, the youngest of six Irish-American boys, sons of a New York City Fire Captain and a homemaker, is an active church member.

Mr. Clancy is a Gideon; as such, he is interested in the salvation of Dutchess County. Mr. Clancy was saved at the age of nine under the evangelistic preaching of "Uncle Winn" Ruelke at a Christian Endeavor rally; he rededicated his life to Christ at Madison Square Garden at the age of 16, during the 1957 New York Billy Graham Crusade. This experience prepared him for the mental illness of his mother and the murder of his father. During his career as a high school biology teacher, Mr. Clancy taught at five New York City schools. His 30-year career ended with retirement at Daytop Village, Far Rockaway, where he taught in an alternative school program of the City of New York. During his marriage to Estelle, he fathered four beautiful children, two boys and two girls, three of whom graduated from military academies.
