Tree Climber

My family and I moved to Rosedale in 1966 and met Mr. Clifton.  As we became friendly, I would go sit on the front proch with his father in the summertime.  Soon, I met his sons.  Calvin was the youngest and my age.  Mr. Clifton would let us go in the back yard and climb his tree!!  Of all things for a girl to be doing!  We would climb as high as we could to watch the neighborhood older boys play football.   He certainly had his hands full with all the neighborhood boys and their mischief.

Well, as time went by, we went our separate ways only to connect again.  I was fortunate to reconnect with him, and once again, sit on his porch on ocassion, and see his family.

He loved his yardwork and kept the lawn beautifully cut.  Mr. Clifton was an approachable friend to all and loved our neighborhood.

Thank you for the memories Sir!!  Godspeed.
