Debbie,
I'm sorry to hear about clifton's passing. I never knew him, but i'm sure he was a good man and no one could have been a better husband to you than he. I wasn't able to attend the visitation or the service, but wanted you to know that my thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. I know that God will help see you through this tough time and will give you that peace that passes all understanding(Phil.4:7). If you need anything just IM me on FB.
