We will be missing Cliff everyday. He never forgot a birthday or holiday and shared his travel experience with us, even sending his 2 year old nephew his own individual postcard. I'm thankful he was able to travel when he did and thankful for having him for a brother. We love you Cliff. Rest in peace, you so deserve that peace.
your sister Rita and family
