Cliff is a person that anyone would want as a brother. He was the kindest person I ever met. Always laughing, smiling and enjoying himself. Yes, I remember him back in Duck Bay and he had a laugh like Ralph Ledoux, another cousin we lost some years ago. Rest in peace my cousin. My prayers and condolences to the family. - Posted by: Abraham Hank Parenteau (First Cousin') on: Aug 16, 2014
