Cliff was one of the first friends I made here after moving from WV in 1979. We worked together at Carter Mach. for 17 years. We did a lot of fishing together years ago at the lake and on the James. We did not catch a lot, but we both loved the lake and river and the outdoors. Cliff helped me build a floating dock where he kept his boat tied up until he moved to the lake. That dock still floats. Cliff had a quiet way about him, but was always around to lend a helping hand and could do anything. So sorry to hear about his passing. He will be greatly missed, but has made many wonderful memories to last forever. Sincere condolences to Mary and his family.
