We will never forget the Buckeye games and the notorious "rook" games when we would get together. Cliff, you have entered into the joys of heaven. We will miss you.

We are so sorry to learn of Cliff's passing. He and my husband, Gary, worked together many years at Airgas. He was a devoted father, husband, grandpa and dedicated to his religious beliefs. May all his loved ones be comforted that he is at peace from his pain and health battles over the past few years and he is at peace with his savior . Our thoughts and prayers go out to all his family at this difficult time.

PRAYERS FOR ALL THE FAMILY

Velma Brewer

Clif was one of a kind and a gentle giant. Teddy and I loved him like family and he was a great Bible Scholar. Life is so uncertain and death is so sure. No matter how bad our sorrow seems, when we stop and praise God, our outlook is so much brighter. Like Paul and Silas in prison, their chains were loosened when they sang praises. John 16:20. Psalm 61:2 "From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed, lead me to the rock that is higher than I." To the family: Don't lose hope, the stage has been set and we are all almost home. So just hold Clif in your hearts until you can once again, hold him in your arms. He is with the ONE who brought him safely home. He fought a good fight, finished his course, and kept the faith. He will be greatly missed, but Christians will be with him longer than they will be without him. His love shines on in our hearts beyond our sorrow~~~Teddy and Velma Brewer
