Clifford was born on the family farm near Menno on November 22, 1929 to Herbert and Helen (Koerner) Preszler. He was baptized on February 2, 1930 and confirmed on June 18, 1944.
He attended country school at Klaudt School of rural Menno. Clifford graduated from the eighth grade and started farming until he was drafted into the US Army in 1952, where he attained the rank of Corporal.
Upon his discharge in 1954, he married Arlene Pietz in Tripp, SD on May 25, 1954. Together they farmed east of Menno until 1992 when they retired to Menno. Clifford still helped with farming - going out to the farm nearly every day to do field work or whatever else needed to be done.
During the years, Clifford was a board member of the Farmer's Grain & Stock Elevator, Menno, SD treasurer for Sweet Township, and a member of the Salem Reformed Church Consistory. He was a lifetime member of the Salem Reformed Church, Menno, SD.
Clifford will be dearly missed by his wife Arlene of Menno, SD; son Steven (Sheri) Preszler, Menno, SD; daughter Kay (Phil) Kasten of Parker, SD; four grandchildren Christopher and Erinn Kasten of Parker, SD and Matthew and Caleb Preszler of Menno, SD; one brother Roland of Menno, SD and two nieces and their families plus a host of friends and relatives.
Clifford was preceded in death by his parents, and one sister-in-law, Alma Preszler.
