Cliff and I quickly became good friends while working together in the Die Shop at Exlabesa. He was fun to work with, which made all our days more enjoyable. He was a good dude. I've missed him since he left the job and I will continue to miss him as I remember all the laughs we had. Rest in peace brother.
