DAVID WARREN CLIFFORD

David's memory and his caring & sharing actions are remembered today.

Dave was more than just one of the good guys. He was a great guy! He inspired and motivated people and he was always there to help anyone who needed it. I never heard him say anything bad about anyone. He always put forth maximum effort no matter what the challenge. Although I was surprised to hear that he was in a wheelchair, I was not surprised that he didn't let that get him down. That simply presented him with a new way of competing. My wife Lydia and I will surely miss him.

Jean, We are so sorry to hear of Dave's passing. Seeing you and Dave at our Fl DAL/ORD DC-9 L/Os was always a delight.
Dave will be remembered as one of the BEST of the best...

So sorry to hear of Capt. Clifford's death. I flew with him several times when he was a DC9 Captain out of ORD. I'll never forget playing Pictionary in the crew room in Little Rock. My condolences to your whole family.

Dave was a man of conviction, courage and integrity. He will be missed by all that knew him.

My sympathy & compassion to Jean and family upon Dave's death. I knew Dave well and worked with him at The Presbyterian Church, Palatine, IL way back in the 1970s & 80s. He was an exuberant man! No more marathons nor "hard landings." Only "soft landings" now with his Heavenly Father.

I have wonderful memories of working with Dave and also skiing with Dave and Jean with the Delta Ski Club. Jean and family, I know that all your wonderful memories of Dave will be in you hearts always.

Dave was always an inspiring leader whether it was in the cockpit, at an ALPA meeting, or in a competitive event, and his smile was infectious! Most of my fondest memories as an ORD based pilot involved Dave--he will be missed by everyone who had the pleasure of knowing him.
