A man of few words but immense heart, Tippy was defined by his quiet strength and his unwavering devotion to those he loved. For Tippy, family was the center of the universe. Nothing brought him more pride or joy than the time spent with his children, wife and friends.

When he wasn’t tending to his home, Tippy could often be found enjoying the simple pleasures of life—whether it was a competitive game of cards around the kitchen table or a focused frame of pool. However, his greatest life’s work was the care and love he provided to his wife, Birdie. His commitment to her was a testament to a lifetime of true partnership.

Tippy leaves behind a legacy of kindness, loyalty, and the reminder that a quiet life can be a deeply impactful one.

As per Clifford’s wishes, cremation has taken place. A celebration of his life will be held at a later date.
