Dear Grandpa,

I will never forget what you taught me and the time that you took that one day to share a piece of the Cline history with me, I will never forget...for the times that you played the piano and for always caring and being there...thank you. I will miss you very much...but, I know that such a fine man as yourself...you are definitely in Heaven looking down on us...



Thank you for relaying the importance of my education and for being an inspiration to keep working hard...and for being a very reputable man...men like you are truly unique.



Love you grandpa--to the rest of the family, I am truly sorry for your loss as well...I knew Grandpa only a short time in comparison to the rest of you all...but, I was extremely blessed to have had him as my grandpa.

Mr. Cline was the greatest man I have ever met - and I considered him my Dad for almost 20 years - he was a great traveler and if you ever had a question - he always had the answer - He lived life to the fullest and did just about everything he ever wanted to do and than some - he touched everyone he ever met - he will be sadly missed

I am truly grieved to know that such a fine man has reached the end of his days here on earth.

He was stern of mien, but soft of heart; as compassionate a man as I have ever known. I am honored for him to have touched my life.
