We received a beautiful letter from JayCee's sweetheart, Shannon, this morning. She wanted to share some thoughts about our friend and favorite afternoon guy...
Hi CJ and Debbie Ray - October 7th is one of the most important days in MY life.This is the day that My John Clifford came into this world.
He came into this world as a result of an incredible love between Clifford and Alice Joyce Falcon.This product of love has brought so much to the rest of us.  John Clifford Falcon - Incredibly selfless  - he will and does give everyone the "shirt off his back".
I once was in the jeep with him and he saw a guy on the side of the road cutting the grass and the guy's tractor was stuck. John put the jeep into park, jumped out, ran over to the guy, pushed the tractor so it would move.  John jumped out of the ditch, waved at the guy and jumped back into the jeep. I watched the guy's face as we drove away, as he stared at John.  In shock. John did it "Just Because".  There are SO many of these examples.  From big to little.  I am willing to bet that both you could name a time or 20 when John did something for each of you "Just Because".Those words say it all about him. "Just Because".  He doesn't do things for the credit, he doesn't do things for cash, he so often is taken for granted, but he doesn't stop.  He does what he does for everyone Just Because.

Just Because it is the right thing to do.

How lucky we would be to have more John Cliffords in this world that do what's right JUST BECAUSE.

My John Clifford has a true "light" that he shares.  He, as I often tell him, is My Sunshine.  Truly.

My wishes for John on his Birthday -

I want Happiness for My John Clifford.
I want Joy for My John Clifford.
I want My John Clifford to get even half of what he gives to everyone on this day.

I thank Pop Cliff and Mama Joyce for bringing this light and sharing it with us.

So I wrote this novel above because I couldn't just ask you to say "Happy Birthday" because this incredible person deserves so much more than just a Happy Birthday.

So please do me a huge favor:  I am not there to give the hugs and kisses that he should have ALL DAY today.  Please say Happy Birthday to John for me and ask everyone to give him so many hugs and kisses ALL DAY because he deserves more than he could ever get.

Thanks :)
