We will hold unforgettable memories of Cliff. He was a person who was highly intelligent, personable, and very witty. A man of much love for children and a treasure chest of humor. Cliff and Dennis spent many good times together as they worked together at FCI and often socialized in Talladega. Dennis also enjoyed visiting him when he lived in Florida. ( Unfortunately, Dennis has an operation on the day of the funeral and, therefore, will be unable to attend the services.) With Sympathy, Dennis and Maria Westwood

Hello to Family of Clifford Friese, I remember Clifford from our days living in the countryside south of Hastings and the trips to the family farm for milk. His family and ours were connected especially through friendship with my brother Stan. I have many good memories and wish for all of you that the sharing of memories will keep Clifford close in mind and heart. May God bless you as you mourn his loss, but also celebrate his life and loving ways. May he know the peace of Christ and the joy of reunion with those who have gone before him in faith. Beverly Raway, OSB

Thank you so much for sharing your memories. They mean so much Beverly! My Dad cherished his memories of his Childhood on the Farm in Hastings. It does indeed bring such comfort. Blessings, Cindy

So sorry to hear of Cliff's passing. I have many fun memories of Uncle Cliff coming and visiting our house in the 70's and 80's. Lots and lots of laughter!!! Especially when he would bring out the old Jerry Cowell LP records. The story about the "Coon Hunting Monkey" led to hours of gut hurting laughter. Cliff was such a fun and funny uncle to hang out with as a youngster. He will be greatly missed by many. Rest In Peace, Uncle Cliff.

Oh David this Memory Means so much:) He would talk about this and his favorite memory was playing football with you when you were little guy when my parents were first marrried. How he’d throw the ball and you would catch it and he would go after you for the “tackle” you’d just throw the ball down:) he just cherished those fun memories. Loved you very much.

My condolences to the Friese family for your loss. It has been many years since seeing and speaking with Cliff. I remember him as a kind hearted, bigger than life soul, and he had a handshake that I will never forget. May he rest in peace.

Thank you Dear Adam:) he always remembered that story and was so happy that we remained friends after all these years:) He also always got a kick out of the shadow boxing incident. I will miss that sense of humor of his so much. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
