Cliffy will forever remain special to me.
He has always been a class act. Showed by example how to take of yourself both mentally and physically.
He hit me with a chop block in our last English High/Latin game in high school. I'm still mad at him:)
He brought me to Rochester to speak to some of his schools and I was so proud that my homeboy was the Superintendent.
I'm sure his cousin Gerry Lynch is givin' him the 411 in heaven.

Much love to Kim, his brother, Skipper and...
