He would watch and admire the older kids through the window and always strived to do his best in football, basketball, and softball. Cliff graduated from Munising High School in 2006. While growing up, he enjoyed traveling with his family to races while his dad raced. It was on those weekends where he developed a love for engines. Clifford's mom called him "her 100 mile per hour kid who was a nice little grease monkey." He was a sawyer in the woods and loved his heavy equipment operator job with G.A.D. Clifford had a "social butterfly" type of personality and when he cooked and was on the wait staff at the casino and Navigator, he always got along well with his customers.
