A strong man in so many ways, I admired his personality and athletic ability in our High School years. To his family just say keep him in your hearts and remember the good things. Mike Kuenzli '63
So even though we all had our particular circles and might not have linked often, that made those rarer experiences memorable....to have become aware of, and part of, something notable.....
And to the "faithful". I apologize for not doing well with this format but I've been with you all the way. I remember every alley, spooky house, old building, brushy field as though it's in a photo in my pocket. I like the little guy in google earth so I can revisit my previous distinct lives and residences.I'm on #4 life which I figure to be the last.......no problem there. or anywhere. Miss you all, especially the folks who shared my unusual existence.. on schedule-- totally satisfied, last goal is to be here functionally with Erma for the grand finale. We have been in fort collins Co for almost three years and the amazing part is that two of our three Nanakuli Hawaii kids are here as are seven grandkids, and three greats .plus inlaws. three households within a couple hundred yards and the 4th about three miles. Communicate with my "other brothers"widows Johnson '64, Phelps and Sherman '63 every few months.
Sorry I never could resist siezing an opportunity to say too much. A teacher smiled when he said something about being "hyperloquacious". Let's enjoy what's left of our borrowed world! And remember well those who have gone ahead. Thanks to Carole and Tom, Kaye, to those who touch bases with my brother Bill '68 or 9.
Apologize for mistakes, omissions, hurts etc. You were (are) all "good folks" Aloha! Cliff and everyone else.

In loving memory of my cousin and fellow classmate. Recently, Clifford who I called "Buddy" and I have been on family zoom due to the pandemic. He was eager to show us his skill playing the drums. He was proud of his accomplishment as I and other family members praised him for sharing his talent with us.
We grew up together, so I have many fond memories of us as children. Having lived in Fostoria, Ohio, during our early childhood, I remember an incident when I found him crying, so I offered him what I thought was Hershey chocolate; instead it was baking chocolate and that made us both want to cry. Some years later we had a good laugh about it. When I was 10 years old our family moved to Tiffin and soon after "Buddy's" family moved to Tiffin, also. There we began our educational experiences in the Tiffin school system. The only mix up we ever had was in the 10th. grade when he took a Spanish class that I had signed up for and he didn't want to relinquish it. It took awhile for me to forgive him, but later I was glad to know he did learn to speak some Spanish.
I will miss my cousin but hopefully will see him in the resurrection as stated at John 5:28,29.
