Cleve was a proud American who had a great love for his country. He valued every moment with his family, especially his grandchildren. His children meant the absolute world to him and were always his top priority. Cleve had an undying love for music particularly his favorite band Metallica. Cleve also had a tremendous love for the game of chess and taught every one of his children how to play at an early age. Furthermore, he loved the game of disc golf and frequently took trips with his children and closest friends to go play at different courses. Above anything, Cleve had a selfless love for people. He always put the needs of others above his own and took pride in doing for others. Beyond living a life full of compassion, Cleve also had a lighthearted personality and loved to entertain others through his sense of humor. He loved to joke with his family, children, and friends.
