Cliff will be missed in the audience of the piano bars like, the Flaming Pit, Normandie Farm Restaurant and others. His favorite song was "My Way" by the great Frank Sinatra. Cliff always had a joke to share and left you with a smile on your face. May God Bless him, give him peace and comfort his family.

Cliff always offered a smile and quick quip to keep everyone on their toes. He was a man who was both intelligent and kind beyond that of most people. I treasure the time I got to spend with him. I believe that from him I learned that life is to be lived each day for that day. He will be missed. To Cliff Jr., Mona, and everyone who loved Cliff and will miss him, I offer my deepest condolences. He was and will remain a beautiful soul.
