Cliff grew up moving all over the Eastern US. He loved being in marching band in high school and at the University of Florida. He was also in a US Navy band from 1961 to 1965.

They were long-time members of Flint church of Christ, where Cliff proudly served as a deacon for many years. He loved God, his family, and music above all else and he was loved by everyone who knew him.
