Condolence From: Dennis Tschirhart
Condolence: I am deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Frank Clifford.
I first met Frank when he taught me at Stratford Teachers' College in 1963-64. Frank was the kind of educator you would want to model yourself after and over the course of my career I would seek his advice and counsel on educational matters. In the later part of my career we were fellow Catholic Supervisory Officers and I marveled at the esteem Frank commanded.
He was extremely thoughtful and I will never forget his kind words expressed to my upon the death of my mother in 1977.
Well,done Frank, rest in peace.

Condolence: Please know that we have the Clifford Family in our thoughts and prayers and extend our deepest sympathy to you all. We had the pleasure of sharing time with Frank at Sunnyside while our Mom Marilyn, resided there. He always brought a smile to her face and ours with his kindness, life stories and sense of humour. We know that he is now safely in the arms of God and his wife Mary, whom he missed immensely. Truly, a wonderful person to know. We wish the Clifford Family great peace as you release Frank into Heaven.

Condolence: Dear Gerry and Clifford family. Please accept our sincere sympathy for the loss of your father. Your dad was very instrumental in moulding me as a Catholic leader in my early days as a principal for the W.C.S.B. On a number of occasions in my first years I entered Lourdes School to the familiar smell of pipe tobacco which meant Frank was waiting in my office, relaxing with his feet on my desk. His question was always the same." Tell me what it is like to be a principal in the late 70's." He taught me , To always allow every individual to leave your office with their dignity in tack, a lesson I followed until my retirement.
I am a better person for having known your father. Frank and the family will be in my daily prayers.

Condolence: Blake and I were very sorry to hear about the loss of your beloved father and grandpa. We consider ourselves so fortunate to have had the opportunity to spend time with Frank, and also with your special mom and grandma, Mary. They always welcomed us into your family, and your dad certainly reflected his belief that "faith, friends and family" are the most important things in life! God bless.
