Let's make this birthday one to remember.

92 years old (Born on September 26, 1932)

Happy Birthday, Clifton! Today we celebrate the incredible spirit and courage you showed as one of NASA's finest. Your dedication during rigorous training sessions always inspired those around you—especially your knack for keeping spirits high with a well-timed joke or two.

Though you're remembered among heroes who reached for the stars, we'll never forget how effortlessly you'd lighten tense moments in mission prep meetings. You may have soared beyond our reach too soon, but your legacy continues to inspire laughter and bravery alike. Here's hoping wherever you are now has clear skies—and plenty of cake!

Cheers to you, Cliff!
