To all of Cliff Smith wife, father, grandfather i send you my love & sympathy at the sad loss of Cliff a nephew that I loved to bits. He was the life of the party and you didn.t know what was coming next. I am sad you passed away so soon & I was coming to see you on Sunday as I am travelling from Blenheim. R.I.P. and say hello to my darling hubby Ken & Pat & Peggy. I am sure they will be angels above & looking down on us.
Our Condolences to all of Cliffs family. I met him years and years ago through work and speedway, washed down many a subject with the odd beer or two
RIP Cliff
