Family and friends are saddened by his death, but relieved he is out of pain and in the arms of his angel. Cliff spent 50+ years as a Mason and Shriner. He was also a member of the Eastern Star and Scottish Rite. His love for children earned him the 10,000 miles pin for driving families to and from the Shriners Hospital. Cliff retired as a school bus driver for Bay County.
Cliff is survived by his wife, of 48 years, Dian; three children Cliff Jr (Angel), Tim (Brandy), Shelley; six grandchildren Kristi, Cindy, Ivee, Harlee, Devan, Vanessa; five great grandchildren Riley, Bailey, Nate, Bentley, Charlotte; sister, brother, nieces and nephews.
A Celebration of Life is scheduled for 2:30 pm on April 12th at the Shaddai Shrine Temple (1101 W 19th street Panama City). To honor Cliff's wishes of not wanting his death to be a sad occasion, food will be served following the service. During this time, the family invites you to share your stories of remembrance.
In lieu of flowers, make a memorial donation to the Shaddai Shrine Temple General Fund.
