Cliff was one of the first people to reach out to me when I started attending Friends Meeting at Cambridge in 2017. I considered him my elder and trusted him during some complicated and difficult times. He took me to lunch at the S&S deli and we talked for a long time. I'm very sorry to hear that he's gone.

I'd lost touch with Cliff, but we used to meet regularly and had some deep conversations about faith and religion when I was fairly new to Friends.

Cliff was one of the first people to reach out to me when I first started attending Friends Meeting at Cambridge. I was struck with his openness and warmth. As I got to know him more, I also discovered his unflinching willingness to call things as he saw them, regardless of what others might think.

Cliff had a strong heart for others and a definite focus for justice. Because he was so very determined he made a stalwart friend. The sum total of his life experience meant that he was conversant with humanity on a variety of levels and could therefore enter wisely, if needed, where others could not or would not. He crucially helped both individuals and the collective through solid administrative work and counseling which included wisdom and heart. He was a true godsend, to some and it is highly likely he is now either an angel or a noncanonized saint.

I really only knew Cliff for a few years and our relationship was still growing. There were many things we had planned (new places to eat, cycling the Lawrence bicycle loop together, things to talk about...) that now will never happen. I'm struggling with the finality of of this loss. I'll have more to say as I sit with this and find the words.

These are the only photos of Cliff I could find. They were all on his laptop in a folder called "photos of self." :)
