Clifford will forever be remembered for being a loving and dependable son, brother, uncle, cousin, and friend often putting others before himself, while enjoying life, and helping others. Having a special place in his heart for the youth, he would often adopt families, sow seeds, and sponsor various  programs aimed at helping youth academically and emotionally to excel in life. He loved seeing youth live up to their highest potential. He also enjoyed cooking, and entertaining his family and friends. He had a love for fast cars and attended race tracks throughout NC and surrounding states. Clifford was a comedian who loved to make others laugh, with a great sense of humor and a jovial personality.
