Whenever I saw Clifford here in Norwich, he always had two immediate thoughts which you could always anticipate:
#1. "How are you doing?" and #2: "Isn't the Lord good?"
I will miss his friendship and fellowship. He was a rich blessing.
My prayer is for God's comfort to his family, and that the same joy he had will be on display through each of y'all.

April, Your dad was a wonderful person. I remember his joking around even during stressful times. He was the truly happiest person I think I've ever met. I never saw him without a smile on his face. Tanya was very fond of him as well. He will truly be missed. Please give Curtis an extra special hug. He's gonna want to be his dad's replacement now, just like he tried to be Mark's replacement. Thoughts and prayers to you and Curtis.
