Cliff Nieporte, lifelong resident of Cincinnati, OH. Born to the late Clifford Henry Nieporte & Evelyn (Eyer) Nieporte. Fondly remembered as "Kip" by his siblings: Darlene (John) Knapp, Dean (Connie) Nieporte & Christine (Dave) Bock. He met the love of his life shortly after High School. He & Karen (Riesenberger) Nieporte celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary this past October. They proudly welcomed 5 children: Jason & Josh Nieporte, Amy (Joseph) Eichhorn, Emily (Nick) Barnes & Julie Nieporte (Nick Allen). He cherished his grandchildren dearly; Alexis Larry, Serenity, Connor & Kyle Eichhorn and Elaina & Robert Barnes will greatly miss him. Loved by many extended family members & friends.
Cliff was an avid outdoors man. He loved landscaping, cooking and many DIY projects. However, family time was above all. In his younger years, he was a great competitor in multiple sports. Cliff was an employee, and eventually a Supervisor at Givaudan for 40 years. He retired in 2017.
Passed away Wednesday, with family by his side. Cliff, Kip, Old Man, Mr. Cliff, Grandpa, Poppa: we'll miss you greatly.

So very sorry to hear of Cliff's passing. I worked with Cliff for the last 15 years of his career at Givaudan. Cliff was a mentor to me as a lead on third shift. He was, by far, the most knowledgeable person I ever worked with. If there was an issue we couldn't solve, we asked Cliff.
But that isn't what I remember most about my friend, Cliff. I remember his wit. He was one of the funniest people I've ever met, with a very fast comeback to anything that was said. He not only taught us, but also entertained us for many years.
All of my thoughts and prayers to Cliff's family. He spoke very, very often of his dear wife, children and grandchildren. I almost felt like I knew Karen from all of the times he would talk about her and his family. He was definitely a family man above all else. They don't make them like Cliff any more.
RIP my friend.
