John Ray, Susan, Carol and families,
We are truly sorry for your loss. Sorry we cannot be with you. One of my greatest pleasures was visiting Uncle Cliff when we were in Louisiana. Annette, Barry and I would sit and talk of days gone by. He always had interesting things to tell us. He was our last link to David history. We shall all miss him. God Bless you, Uncle Cliff. May you rest in peace. We love you.

Rest in peace Uncle Cliff. Love you
