							Cliff was a born entertainer who loved life and his 
							precious dog, Thunder. The word “Can’t” was not in 
							his vocabulary, and he never thought twice if 
							someone needed help. Cliff retired as Illico Oil 
							T.B.A. Division Sales Manager, was affiliated with 
							Jefferson Street Christian Church; and was the 
							Exalted Ruler of The Grand Elks Lodge #914 from 
							1997-1998. This very giving and loving man from 
							Kentucky will be greatly missed.
 A graveside service for Cliff will be held at 2:00 
							p.m. on Wednesday, January 4, 2017 at New Union 
							Cemetery. Memorial donations may be made in Cliff’s 
							name to the donor’s choice. Services have been 
							entrusted to Fricke-Calvert-Schrader Funeral Home, 
							Lincoln.
