OGDEN -A gentleman, Clifford F. Judkins, 96, passed away Monday, March 23, 2009, at the home of his son, Merlin, of causes incident to age. He never left his room before making his bed, as he did on this day.
He was born July 19, 1912, in a log cabin in Warren, Utah to Minnie East and Charles Judkins. He was the middle child of seven.
Being a lifetime resident of Weber County, he attended local schools through the eleventh grade prior to forgoing his education to help on the family farm.

Clifford was self-sufficient all of his life. He exercised daily, prepared meals, and drove to visit his wife at a local care center. He enjoyed spending time with his family as well as several winter trips to Arizona. He took pride in his yard, gardening, and enjoyed the outdoors.
He was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, having served in many callings.
