He then joined the Navy and served as a Millwright aboard the aircraft carrier USS Bennington, touring places like Japan and the Pacific Islands. He married Diane Blatter and had three daughters. Following his military service, he supported his family by putting his Millwright skills to work at Reynolds Metals in Troutdale, OR. Along his career path he worked at Crown Zellerbach, Scappoose Pole Yard, in Scappoose, OR. Cliff spent many years at the Simpson West Linn Paper Mill, West Linn, OR. When this mill closed, he moved with his wife, Bobbie Scott, to Siletz and began working at Boise-Cascade in Toledo, OR. He worked here until his retirement. Following retirement, he worked as a delivery driver and as a Medical Transport driver for Oregon Coast Transport, where he enjoyed his adventures meeting many new people along his routes. Cliff loved to spend time with his family and friends. He was very generous with his time and a loyal friend. Cliff loved fishing, camping, and making things with his welding or woodworking skills, gardening, but most of all, making people laugh. At the time of his death, Cliff and his fiancée, Mavis, were looking forward to their plans of traveling the Pacific Northwest and beyond to visit family and explore new places along the way. Sadly, these plans were cut short. Cliff is survived by his fiancée Mavis Moore; three daughters: Kristi Summers (Ryan); Marci Jackson (Jim Anderson); and Darci Eisele; seven grandchildren: Kerstin Sandoz, Alex Moyer, Aurora Summers, Colton Summers, Tony Jackson, Amber Anderson, Sophie Eisele; niece Connie Wooden.
