I was saddened to hear of this news.
My deepest sympathies during your time of loss, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time.
He always had a smile or a positive word to say.
I truly enjoyed the time I worked with Cliff at the auto auction.
He was a good friend.
I have never left condolences, so not sure what to say.
Cliff was my best friend all through high school at Seneca, and we had some great times together, mostly up to no good! I remember us always hanging out under the hood of his car, while listening to music… on 8-track. I had been trying to hunt him down for years, but being halfway across the planet in the army made it difficult.
Saddened to have found him this way.
My condolences to his family.
He was a great friend and the closest I had to a brother.
I would really like to talk with you sometime.
Debby Boring
