Dear Clough family, I have many fond memories of Mr. Clough over the years, from the Swan Island Club and branding in Montana in particular. Not to mention many great stories shared by my Dad. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Debbie, Max, Dave, Barry and family,
My childhood in Lower Tuckahoe spent with you guys gave me a solid base to spring into adulthood. It's always a blessing when neighbors turn into family. Rock's smile and warm, loving hugs will always be with me.
Love,
Lisa

Dear Debbie, Barry, Brenda, Carson, Cannon and Cole,
You are all in my thoughts and prayers. My heart goes out to you during this time of sorrow. Although I'm not in Charlotte very often, I will miss seeing 'Bop' across the street.
Love to you all,

Dear Clough's,
Kay and I send our sympathy for your loss. We have fond memories from your tenure in Richmond as all of our boys went through Collegiate Schools as did yours (although a few years ahead of us). It has been my pleasure to work with Dick and Barry within the paper industry and they have always been two of my favorites.
God bless your family,
Jim and Kay Hunter

Dear Cloughs,
I feel as though I am rudderless in this world now that my father and Dick are gone. Dick was my mentor and great friend at Carolina Tractor. I wish peace for you all as you progress through this new chapter in your lives without him.

Debbie, Brenda, Barry, Carson, Cannon and Cole,
I will miss Rock so very much and my heart grieves for you all in the loss of such a wonderful human being. I feel truly blessed to have known that remarkable man -what a great husband, dad, grand-dad and life-loving individual. I have so many fond memories of him, but 2 of the best are the time spent with him in Va. Beach and being called the Food Hitler and that crisp Thanksgiving weekend many years ago trying to keep up (and being left in the dust!) with all the Cloughs on their bikes.
Take care-I love you all.

Debbie, Barry, Brenda & The entire Clough Family,
The Kennedy's send their deepest sympathies. "Rock" was one of our most favorite people in the entire world! The light and twinkle that would shine from his eyes for his entire family was, and still is, truly an inspiration for us all. Our thoughts are with you.
God Bless you all

Barry and Dave ,
My deepest sympathies go out to you and your family. I know what a difficult time this is and that one can never be prepared. Just know that he is in a better place and the suffering is over.

Dear Clough family:
The memories of a beautiful life were fondly shared with me by Barry, Dick's son. A deeply loyal father and husband to his family and friends. May Debbie, his children, and grandchildren continue to grow In God's grace for eternity.

Dear Debbie,
Words cannot express the sorrow that we feel with your loss. I can't imagine life at Sandbridge without "the rock". We are all a little bit smaller without him.
Much,much love,

I send my hugs and love to all the family. Mr. Clough, "Rock", and Debbie raised a beautiful family and their children have successfully mimicked their recipe of family, laughter, joy, fun and friends. There are so many things I'll miss as I hear his voice and he always made me smile. I am thankful for the memories and his friendship and guidance which I will treasure forever.

You always remember those that affected you powerfully - particularly in childhood. The Cloughs, with Mr. Clough "Dickie" and Mrs. Clough "Debbie" at the helm, were among a handful of second parents that we, as a family, vacationed with, played with, ate with, sang with, beached with and generally grew up with. Their family shared without restraint or reserve all the gifts of their lives - and became a part of what will always be my idyllic memory of child- and young adult-hood. I will mourn his passing but remain grateful and comforted by the thought that he remains such a wonderful part of my, and my family's lives.

Debbie, I remember Dick (and your whole family) fondly from Richmond ... and so enjoyed seeing you all again here. He lived fully, and your being by his side must have made it fuller.
Wishing you all the best.
