Most Recent Reflection
View all 17 ReflectionsIn a very short time it will be the 37th anniversary of your passing. We were never close, it was weird having a nephew that was 4 years older than me, but I loved you & your passing broke my heart. I think of you often, but lately, I've been thinking about you a lot & I don't know why.
I often wish we had been closer, like family should be, but that wasn't in the cards we were dealt. I miss my family, I miss you & I really miss your grandma.
You are one, of way too many people, that are gone but always in my heart, my thoughts & my prayers. I've told my daughter, Breena all about you, it's important that we keep your memory alive by telling your story.
RIP Cliff. Gone but never forgotten!
