The Jackson Family,
Cliff was more than a co-worker. He was my guiding star when we started at the IRS as my coach 36 years ago. Like Manny Sanford he always was patient and supportive throughout my career. And most of all he was a loving man. We all miss him.

I was a former coworker of Cliff. Toward the end of my career with the IRS found us both in the same group. He was a friend and he will be missed.
