Mr. White. You will truly be missed by all of us. Thank you for all the fun memories. You were truly a kind hearted and agengleman.

Mr White, words can never say it all and so your memories will always remain in our hearts and never fades away. Have a safe trip home where there is no pain and suffering.

Augusta; we are sad to learn of Cliff's demise. He has been asked for by many of the Wednesday lunch group. It was very graciouis of you to bring him to our function when he was capable. We sincerely hope he did not suffer during his last days. Serenity House
