Clifford Gordon Gladden

Clifford Gordon Gladden was born on July 3rd, 1954. His life comprised of 24,605 beautiful days of smiles, tears, joy, laughter, sadness, sorrow, hardship and happiness. His heart ran the full gauntlet of experience and emotion that comes with this human existence. Through it all he remained a gentle, kind and loving soul, whose understanding and compassion, love of introspective reflection, cynicism and self learnedness, made him an asset to all and an understated force for good and happiness in this dark comedy of a world. He was a caring father and husband, a cherished co-worker, a proud businessman, witty writer, philosopher and friend and he held a magnetism that brought him great success in every endeavour he chose to pursue.

Humble and hopeful he passed peacefully at home, Thursday, March 3rd, 2022, surrounded by his loved ones and to the beat of his own drum. He will be so deeply missed and is survived by his wife of 43 years Liliana, his sons, Ivan, Alan, Alessandro, Dylan and Ovidio and his beloved daughter Chiara.

May he find the peace that he sought so often in life.

Enjoy that taxi ride across the universe and we’ll see you in the big blue!

Love forever. Always.
