Although I only met Cliff about 6 yrs ago I will always remember his genuine smile, his unique laugh, his wonderfull stories, his warm huggs, his friendship, his love of talking about the goodness of God, and his special prayers for me a few yrs back just before I went in for surgery. Cliff truely loved people and cared a great deal about them. I am glad to have known Cliff for this short period of time, and my heart felt condolences go out to his family and friends.

Cliffy, that's what I used to call him.
We were the trouble makers in our younger years! Only Cliffy got caught and I didn't...So happy to say that we finally reconnected a few years ago. Cliffy came to our river cabin several times and spent wonderful moments there.
He loved the cabin, and would say "when you going to the cabin again?"
It's times I will always cherish and so happy we were able to be together for a short time. Miss you all the time and wish I could talk to...

My sweet brother Cliff! I never thought I would miss hearing your stories and the sound of your voice so much! I wanted to hear all about you teaching the grandkids how to fish and how beautiful the Clearwater River is. We were blessed with such a strong bond! No one in this world could mess with it, that's for sure. It makes my heart break when I want to talk to you, and I can't. I love you dearly brother! I am missing you so much!

Cliff old buddy, you left life too early. We only knew each other 50 years. Was it 58 or 59 when we met? It’s hard to remember anything during or before the 60’s. We sure had some fun then didn’t we? I was expecting quite a few more years having you around. I was so sure you would become a Fishing Guide up there in Orofino. You were a real force in life, it hard to believe you’re gone. I am sure you are now trying to reorganize things in heaven. You will be missed by many. We only get a few...

I knew him when I was a kid, my brother and him use to hang out together, I use to hang out with his sister Diane when they lived with their Dad. Cliff was a nice guy. My heart goes out to his Dad Pete, his sisters, and his extended family. We ask for blessings to be upon all of those gathered who are left behind. May the Christ-consciousness attend them in their grief, and may the Holy Spirit surround them, Amen.
