He enjoyed poker, cooking on the grill for everyone, volleyball, music, traveling in his motorhome, and tinkering with his Bobcat and lawnmower. He loved telling stories, sharing laughter, and making memories.

Cliff made friends wherever he went. He had a way of making everyone feel welcome and valued. He was a loving father, devoted grandfather, and steadfast friend and neighbor. His laughter, stories, and memories will continue to comfort all who knew and loved him.

Clifford is survived by his daughters, Diane Hubbard, and Dawn Hubbard; grandchildren, Raymond Armstrong, Mason Noseworthy, Gabriela Hubbard, and Kristina Armstrong; great -grandchildren, Grayson Hubbard and Faith Armstrong, his sisters, Flo LaRoche, Helen Walsh, Theresa Brochu, and cousin, Kathy Johnson.
