Same Message, Different Words....
Clifford Bannister Amos---
Native to Kentucky.
Tall.
Erudite natural aristo who unaffectedly displayed the common touch.
Collectively, you might call those attributes:
Lincolnesque.
Om Shanti, Brother.

Cliff: You were, and doubtless remain, the very model of a "mensch"; tell The Big Guy Upstairs to go easy on this mortal when his time to cross the bar at last arrives. God's Peace On You, Ol' Buddy. --Kent

Cliff was that postmodern rarity, a gentleman scholar who was not a snob. I knew him only briefly.... long enough, however, to know that he perfectly fit the colloquial phrase "a nice guy." SALUD, Brother-- I hope we'll meet again.

Cliff was a real Renaissance man. He could speak in depth about so many things and he always taught me something new. He will be greatly missed by me and the community.
