Not sure what to say?

My father, Ned Harris and Aubrey were good friends. Although I don't remember much as I was 3 or 4, I do remember his kindness, his laugh, his presence in my life. When I think of him, and read about his life, I feel positive and wonderful things. Strange as that may sound, it's true. He made that much of an impact on me. I am sorry for your loss, and that the world lost such a beautiful soul. Thinking of you. H3

I knew Aubrey in the 70s when we were both young and had the world by the tail. He loved to surprise and be surprised by words and ideas.

He had a kindness in his eyes that made him approachable and easy to talk with in spite of his status. I saw him "hold court" in the old Union grill and show the same gallantry and courtesy to deans and busboys alike.

I'm sorry he's gone and grateful to have crossed paths with him even for a short while.

My deepest condolences on the passing of Dr. Radcliffe. He made a profound and positive impact on my life at Delta Upsilon and Michigan State University, way back in 1980. The world is a little smaller without him in it.

Doc was a mentor to me. Actually he was the older brother I never had. We talked on the phone two or three times a week and would always kid one another when we didn't return each other's calls. I was out of town and called his house daily. I thought he was out of town or away on business. I just found out Doc passed away. He was proud and excited about his involvement in his church. We talked about how he had found a church home. He was a man who stood strong for what he believed.

Aubrey loved to sit and talk about young people and how he served them, his days at West Point, anything having to do with MSU, the Republican Party and most of all he would talk for hours about the Church he loved to call his own. He loved to sit and talk to the Missionaries that served the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. We will all miss Elder Radcliff as our Brother in the Lansing Ward. God be with you till we meet again Brother Radcliffe....

Dr. Radcliffe was my councelor at Sexton all 4 years I was there. I truly enjoyed his company when I met with him, and his advice he gave was from the heart. My parents moved to charlotte my Junior year and I didnt want to transfer schools so I moved in with my sister which was Everett's district. The district said I had to pay tuition fees to attend Sexton because I was no longer in their district (this was before school of choice). Well being a teenager I couldnt afford to do this and spoke...

Dr. Radcliff made a difference in so many young lives. He too was my guidance counselor and spoke to the woman I wished for and wanted to be. He helped me set up a do-able game plan for success. He had the knowledge, contacts, sense of humor (outrageous sometimes) and especially belief in youth. He was the bridge to college, adulthood, and living one's dreams. I will miss seeing him at the MSU basketball and football games. A great man who be missed. Jennifer F.

Dr. Radcliff was my counselor at Walter French Jr. High. He served as a mentor, and friend. I appreciated how he challenged his students to dream big and pursue their goals with conviction. We spent many days discussing politics, higher education, travel and sports. I am thankful to God for the positive influence he had in my life. He will be missed by many.

DR.RADCLIFF WAS MY COUNSLOR AT LANSING SEXTON HIGH SCHOOL IN 1988 HE WAS A VERY NICE CARING MAN WITH HIS STUDENTS . HE WAS A VERY SWEET PERSON.
