Cliff was the life of the party, very funny, and knowledgeable in many ways. He always knew the perfect joke to crack just to put a smile on your face. He truly loved and cherished his family, especially his great grandchildren whom he asked to see everyday until he took his last breath. He spent the last three years looking back on the memories of his beloved wife Mary and wishing he could be with her again. In his honor we would like you to celebrate them as a whole, both of which will be missed dearly every day that passes.
