Janet,Pam,and family,
I am so sorry for the loss of Cliff. I have so many memories of him when we were growing up. I would spend the night with Janet and Cliff would always be there. It seemed like he always had a car he was working on downstairs in the driveway or he was in the kitchen knocking around. He always had a kind word for me. There were many Sundays after church that we would all be setting at the bar eating lunch in the kitchen. Those good memories are the ones you hang on to at times like these. I hope you know how much I love ya’ll and how much your family and friendship have always meant to me and my family. All of you will be in our thoughts and prayers. I am so sorry that you have the loss of your Dad/Grandpa/family member. I know that you are all leaning on The Lord thru this and He will get you thru it. He alone is able! Again, I am so sorry for your loss. Please do not hesitate to call on us. If we can do anything at all to help we will be happy to do it. God bless and keep all of you!
