Charles Everett Clift

Born on January 7, 1928 in Butler, Missouri
Departed in Melbourne, Florida on April 19, 2020

Charles Everett Clift was born January 7, 1928 to Everett and Nettie Clift. He served in the U.S. Navy during WWII, and he was a true patriot throughout his lifetime. He married his soulmate, Dolores Wolfe Clift, in 1949 and they celebrated their 70th wedding anniversary last September 4th. He was a proud graduate of the University of Maryland and Chief of Procurement for NASA during its glory days.
Charles was a devoted follower of Christ. He led many Bible studies, went on mission trips, and shared the gospel of Christ to everyone he met. He prayed for the salvation of his family faithfully, and he was so grateful when each of his grandchildren came to the Lord. He worshipped at Calvary Chapel Melbourne.
He is survived by his wife Dolores, son Jeffrey Clift, daughter Candyce Clift Trew, grandson Eric Trew, and three granddaughters: Robyn Trew McMullen, Jennifer Clift Infanti and Julie Clift Greenwalt. The pride of his life were his 15 great-grandchildren who loved their Paw Paw dearly.

My incredible grandfather. I will miss you so much. Thank you for teaching me about Jesus, faith, and the importance of marriage and family. I will miss playing aggravation with you. I will miss laughing with you at the hospital. You were the best grandfather to me and papa to my kids. We will hug you in heaven and carry your legacy on. You were a true hero! Love, The Greenwalts
