I remember when I met Mr. Clifton the first time. He and Mrs. Evelyn were "camping" in their camper next to kathy & Jim's garage. He always had an easy smile and a happy heart. They say that the "apple does not fall far from the tree". Just Knowing Kathy Riche', with her abundant heart to help so many, I know what a good man he was. Praying God's Comfort and Peace for ALL of his family. He lived a long and fruitful life and his spirit will live on through Kathy, Cary, Tim and the grandchildren!

There will never be another Uncle Clifton , he was one in a million, sweetest man in the world, who went straight from this one and into the arms of Jesus. God bless and comfort Aunt Evelyn, his children, and all of his family.
