Clifford Earl Tabor was born on May 11, 1943, in Howell County, Missouri, the son of Lee Tabor and Nellie (McBride) Tabor. He was united in marriage on July 8, 1960 to Bobby Jo (Bay) of Chapel Hill who survives at home.
Cliff was the loving father of Teresa Lee (Kenny) of Richmond, MO and Valerie Mgrdichian (Kevin) of Ankeny, IA; the proud grandfather of Kindy (Grant) Kessler, Miranda (Brad) Randall and Kailey Mgrdichian; great-grandfather of Kaidence, Kynli, Bodhi and Lucas; brother of Elda Phelps, Mountain View, MO, Bennie Baumgarth and husband Roy of Cedar Hill, MO, and Hazel Easky and husband Dale of St. Clair, MO.
He is preceded in death by his parents, Lee and Nellie Tabor; four brothers Raymond, Robert, Carl and Bill Tabor; two sisters, Pauline Tabor and Catherine Melton; two brothers-in-law, Elmore Melton and Dwight Phelps.
Cliff will be fondly remembered by family and friends as a loving husband, father, grandfather and storyteller. Some of his proudest accomplishments were early retirement from Associated Wholesale Grocers in Kansas City, KS, then obtaining his Auctioneer license. Cliff truly enjoyed working on the farm while raising cattle, gossiping at the local coffee shop, boating and could be considered a pool shark.
Funeral services will be held at 10:00 a.m. Monday, March 9, 2020, in Yarber Mortuary chapel, Mountain View, Missouri. Visitation will begin at 9:00 a.m. prior to the service. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to The American Cancer Society. Condolences may be expressed at www.yarbermortuary.com.
