Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.

My heart is saddened for your family my brother. The Cowboys/Redskins games will never be the same now that you aren't here to talk your smack. Wish you were here but God wanted you home. Sleep well Peabody.

My Deepest sympathy to the entire family. Peabody, was an amazing person. Always had a kind heart.

I'm going to miss you Peabody...you watched me grow up you was always nice to me.rest in peace.love,(BLONDIE)

Man man man!!! Don’t even know where to start with this. Everyone knew him, if you attended school you knew Clifton. I always called him “Clift”or “Mr. Peabody.” This guy from back back , was always full of energy and smiling. People pass everyday, but this is one of those that stops the brain. Brother, you rest well and keep on smiling!! “ I’ll tell you all about it , when I see you again”!

To the entire Raigns Family, my prayers are with each of you now and the difficult days you may encounter trying to move forward. “Peabody” as we called him was the light and laughter for the entire class of 1980. We were all so young back then when we started this journey called Life and not realizing the memories we were putting in place to reflect back on our lives. I am truly going to miss my classmate, R.I.P Bro

To Mike and the family, it is said that, The only reason we feel such profound loss is because we had such a profound blessing. Peabody my close friend and brother will be greatly missed. Stay strong family. The Hill family
