CLIFFORD CHARLES ANDERSON July 15, 1930 February 2, 2015 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Clifford Anderson after a brave, lengthy battle with Alzheimer's. Cliff passed away surrounded by his loving family. Cliff will be missed by so many people whose lives he touched especially his devoted wife of 62 years, Marjorie, his children Jim (Sandi), Ann (Craig), and his grandchildren Stephen, Carly (Edgar), Lauren, Brett and Devyn. Cliff was predeceased by his parents Rupert and Helene, brother Jim (Sue), sister Betty (Sonny), nephew Garry as well as numerous relatives who are anticipating his arrival to get the party started. Cliff was born and raised in Winnipeg where he met his life partner and soul mate, Marge and together they embarked on many adventures, baseball tournaments, bowling trips, traveling. Cliff worked at Bullman Brothers, Kimberly Clark and ended his career with the Air Canada Finance Department. Family was the most important part of his life, always attending the children's school functions, activities and sporting events. Summers were spent at the lake enjoying quality family time. Cliff was an accomplished athlete being inducted into the Manitoba Softball Hall of Fame with the Kiewel's White Seals and The Manitoba Ten Pin Hall of Fame. He continued to bowl regularly into his 70s. The family would like to extend their heartfelt appreciation and gratitude to the 4th Floor Concordia Place staff for all their loving support and care.

Marge - I didn't see you the past 2 times I was there with Tobli, but Cliff seemed so happy.

Take care, Marge. - Posted by: Ginny (Friend) on: Feb 08, 2015
