I would like to send my deepest condolences to the bell family during this time. Cliff was a great man and a wonderful neighbor that I have respected all my life. I told him that I would drop by and see him in early spring or fall but I guess that he just couldn't be Away from his sweet wife (Deanne) after her passing. They are a beautiful couple and I am sure that they are so happy to be in each other's arms again. Bless your hearts!
My wife and I would like to send our blessings to Craig, Robert, Lisa, Mark and to their sweet families. You are truly blessed to have Cliff and Deanne in your life. You have the best parents and Grandparents in the world. The world will never be the same without them.

With the deepest respect,
Dean and Sandra
