As Aunt Laura Lee would say, Bob Hope has some competition in Heaven now!

Bless you George, Dianne, Benny, Vickie and the rest of the family as Uncle Clifford takes his place in Heaven along with his family and friends that have gone before him.

Thanks for sharing him with us...the last time I talked to him he told a joke. I said I would be back to visit...and he *Like (Gen. Douglas) MacArthur!"
Love, Claudia
