Mr. Ricky Morris Clifton's Obituary
Mr. Ricky Morris Clifton, age 62 of Kingston Springs, Tennessee passed away on Sunday October 10, 2021. He was born on October 29, 1958 in Pulaski, Tennessee to Villard and Sylvia Clifton. In addition to his parents, he is survived by his son Matthew Clifton (Chrissy), sister Denise Joscelyn (Jeff Poole), brother Kenneth Clifton (Elizabeth Roderick), grandson Aiden Clifton, and niece Lindsay Joscelyn Loftis (Carter).
Ricky was a fun-loving guy. He had a great sense of humor, loved people, and he was always the life of the party. He loved airplanes, and worked for American Airlines for a period of time. He loved getting to hop on a plane and travel anywhere he would like. He enjoyed putting together model airplanes and attending Air Shows with his son as well. Ricky also proudly served his country in the United States Air Force. Ricky was a hard worker and he knew the value of a hard day’s work. Although he worked hard, he played hard too, always taking time to enjoy the company of those around him by watching sports, cracking a joke, or even having an afternoon playing in the snow any chance he got.
