Errol Milner Clifford 2006-2009

Errol Milner Clifford was born with a significant heart defect and a cognitive disability that prevented him from walking or talking. As we grieved the child we had anticipated, Errol’s full-bodied smile and irrepressible laugh turned our sorrow into joy, and taught us that many of the best things in life are unexpected. Inspired by Errol’s delightful spirit, friends, family, and neighbors rallied to support our family’s significant emotional, physical, and financial needs, through countless acts of selfless generosity. When Errol’s courageous heart finally failed him on December 23, 2009 we were left numb with grief. In these dark hours we listen hopefully for the echoes of Errol’s brilliant laugh. This blog is the story (starting from present and working back to Errol's birth) of the life and times of the amazing Errol Clifford.

Errol's amazing teachers

















Three years has meant three amazing classrooms at The Children's Center. Here is The Little Man with the wonderful Ms. Jennifer who is incredibly observant and probably reads Errol better than anyone in the world besides his mother. His other teacher, Paula (who is not pictured) treats him like he is her own son! We could hope for nothing more for Errol! 

Every year we cry over Errol's leaving his classroom/home (Anne, Audrey, Paula, Karen, Tamara, Susan!!!!) and every year he gets placed in another stimulating and loving environment.
















Errol adores his teachers and so do we!
