Not sure what to say?

Uncle Cliff: My Pud. The man of many stories. Handyman extraordinaire. Nap king of Jamestown. Energizer bunny. Gentle spirit. Generous heart. We'll miss you. Give our love to Uncle Paul & Uncle Matt. Thanks for being you. Love you lots.

Dear Nell, so sorry to read of Cliff's passing, will always remember him on the craft class nights he put up with all of us trouping down to the craft room on Eddy St.

Uncle Cliff,

We will miss you always and have many fond memories of the time you have spent with us all. Thank you for the war stories, many trips down memory lane and giving us all a reason to debate any issue. We will do our best to keep the old family homestead in shape and join Uncle Ralph for Sunday afternoon naps under the awning. Rest in Peace.

DEAR AUNT NELL
JUST A LITTLE NOTE TO TELL YOU HOW UNCLE WILL BE MISSED. I REMEMBER HOW HE ALWAYS HAD A STORY, OR TWO, SOMETIMES THREE!!! BUT WE ENJOYED ALL OF THEM...HE TRULY WAS A KIND WONDERFUL MAN..HE WILL BE REMEMBER.

LOVE
JUDY AND GERRY

Oh Cliffie,
You know how much I love you!! I will miss hearing, "Hey Kris, what do ya know?" I will truly miss all your stories of the old neighborhood on Eddy Street and of the war. Who will I hit on the head with there hat now? Vanessa will never forget you and Auntie babysitting and playing restaurant with her. Ken will think of you every time he uses one of your tools. The stories you must be telling Uncle Paul and Uncle Matt in the big coffee shop in the sky!!

How many times did you and Nell help out Tony and I? You've both done so much but I particularly remember the many hot nights when we were pregnant with Sue and you would treat us to ice cream @ Newport Creamery. We'll miss you. Love, Jae & Tony

I have a mental picture of Uncle Cliff that I will hold with me forever - he is sitting on a green lawn chair, under the awning down Jamestown spinning tales of being in the army in Africa. 90 great years, my friend. What a wonderful ride - and what an honor to have you a part of our amazing family.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Uncle,

You will surely be missed by all your family. We will need to get someone else to do the odd carpentry jobs at Jamestown. Hope you are having fun catching old family in heaven up on what's going on down here.

Rest in Peace
