Clifford was born February 18, 1942 in Wesley, Arkansas to Lee James and Theda Evangeline (Shofner) Alderson.
The family spent many years in Southern California. Clifford graduated from Fullerton High School in 1959.
He worked as a fireman for Orange County for about 20 years, and he also worked with Hughes Aircraft for a few years.
Clifford moved back to NW Arkansas where he met and later married Brenda (Blevins) Jeko. They enjoyed living and working in Springdale.
Clifford was an avid fisherman, once holding a record for the largest bass caught in Lake Castaic, California. He loved to garden and hunt. He was a Jack-of-All-Trades who loved helping people. He was gregarious and enjoyed his time with others; it didn't matter if you were an old friend or a friend he had just met.

He was preceded in death by his parents; and his step-son, Devin Jeko.
