It's almost a year since I lost my Dear Cousin Clifford and not a day goes by that I don't think of him...I miss him more than anything..He was my cousin, we had SO MANY GOOD TIMES, and now he's gone.. You truly were an angel sent from God in heaven above. Your shocking death just broke the hearts of everyone you loved. When I found out that you had died I thought that they were wrong. You were so alive - and then just like that, you were gone. A flame blown out in seconds, Confirming our worst fears - A light that shines no more on earth for which we shed many tears. But still you are my cousin And I need you right now. You hear all the prayers I say Because they are answered somehow. I wish that you could be here, But in a way you are. Your memory goes everywhere with me, so I know you can't be far. It still is quite a shock to me that you had to die; But no one will forget you And I love you, and goodbye. Love, Cousin, Sherry, Pat, Cruz and Thalia.....
