I was very saddened and shocked to hear of Jerrell's passing. Though I haven't seen Jerrell in many years, I have nothing but pleasant memories of his smile and jokes in Sunday School class.
Please know that Gersande and I have the entire Clifton family in our prayers during this difficult time.

I will always remember JC as a funny, charming and goffy guy who always made me laugh. I will cherish the memories I had with him and all of our deaf friends from the Cavalier Manor area. Rest in peace, JC! You will never be forgotten! May God bless the family & keep you in His care.
