I was shocked and deeply saddened when I heard about Eugene's passing, I've known the Clifford family since I was a child and although we all grew up and went our own ways, we were still lifelong friends. Eugene will be sorely missed without a doubt and I pray that your memories of him will help all of you throughout this difficult time. My thoughts and prayers are with you. May God Bless each and every one of you.
