Clifford Silva

a real jewel...tomatoes, smoked fish, fishing rods....they all sparkled with his twinkle. since the mid eighties at the farm market selling with him always watching to make sure things were right....he will be missed by many...."The Rod Builder" is on my favorite rod and will be seen by all...til we meet again....

I´m so sorry and saddened to hear that Cliff passed away! I had the pleasure of meeting him through the Farmers Market and was one of his many loyal customers for many years. I used to love to chit chat with him and learned so much from him about tomatoes. He was such amazing man that didn´t mind questions and was always there to help make a decision on his over 200+ tomatoes. I remember one time when he was selling on his birthday and I ended up coming back to drop off a birthday card off...

I met Cliff through my parents as he did their yard work for years. My Dad always enjoyed talking with Cliff after he finished working and they shared a little drink. Cliff always had so many stories and he loved sharing them. He was a very meticulous and hard working guy all the time. After my parents passed and Cliff got older I continue with his son Brett and his son Trevor occasionally. Cliff raised good kids and passed on his work ethic. I am sure my Dad and Cliff are still sharing...

Standing next to Cliff, selling his beautiful tomatoes and potatoes and broccoli and all the rest, for over thirty years was such a pleasure...even when he was crabby. One of a kind was our Cliff. He was something else.

TOM THE SILVA FAMILY.... I AM VERY SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS.....I WAS RAISED IN SEBASTOPOL...... I KNEW CLIFF FROM FISHING AND AROUND TOWN,,, HE WILL BE MISSED....R.I.P ART WONG.....

My condolences to Cliff's family. What a wonderful man, a joy to be around.
