Michael Clifford

Michael J. "Mike" Clifford, 73, passed away suddenly on May 26, 2025, in North Fort Myers, Florida, after a period of declining health.

Born on September 12, 1951, in Boston, Massachusetts, Mike grew up in Holbrook, MA. Resided in Weymouth, MA for many years before moving to Florida. Though far from his New England roots, he carried them with him always-especially in his unwavering loyalty to New England sports teams.

Mike shared a devoted marriage of 50 years with his beloved wife Sandra (Worrell) Clifford, who preceded him in death in 2024. Their enduring partnership was a testament to love and commitment that touched all who knew them. He was predeceased by his parents Daniel and Florence "Dolly" (Johnson) Clifford.

He is survived by his brother Daniel Clifford of Holbrook, Massachusetts; sister-in-laws Janie Worrell, Debra (Worrell) Egan and Barbara (Worrell) Chaisson husband Rich all of Weymouth, Massachusetts; and many nieces and nephews Paul, Gage, Porter, ,Tara, Paul, Katie, Savannah, Ryan, Joe, Alye, and Natalie.

He was predeceased by sister in law Alyce Worrell Stewart and brother in law Paul Egan. He also leaves behind cherished friends Peter and Beverly Greco of North Fort Myers, Florida.

Mike found joy in life's simple pleasures. A true fan of New England sports, he rarely missed a game and celebrated every victory with pride. He also had a deep love for the beach-his favorite escapes were Siesta Key in Florida and Nantasket Beach in Hull, Massachusetts. He enjoyed riding the rides with his nieces and nephews on trips to Canobie Lake Park in NH. Whether soaking up the sun or enjoying the ocean breeze, these places brought him peace and happiness.

May his memory bring comfort to those who knew and loved him. A Graveside Service will be held on July 21, 2025, from 09:30 AM to 10:15 AM at Old North Cemetery Niche Wall 126 Norton Street. Family and Friends welcome.
