It also recognizes Clifford's commitment to continuing his father Jack Clifford's legacy and sharing leadership with his sons, Jim and Mike, while maintaining a strong tradition of community involvement through supporting local charities, events, and nonprofit organizations. The resolution ultimately celebrates Clifford's contributions to the local and state economies and formally acknowledges his achievements by transmitting an engrossed copy of the resolution to him.
