Our beloved father, grandfather, opa, brother, and friend, Clifford Otto Brey, passed away on June 20, 2011, of natural causes. We take comfort in the thought of his heavenly reunion with his two sons, Jeffrey Brey and Mark Brey, who preceded him in death.

They were later divorced but remained friends. Cliff loved his family. His children and grandchildren were the greatest joys of his life. Cliff enjoyed sharing his hobbies with his grandchildren.

He was a faithful member of the LDS church. He served a full-time mission in the West German Mission and, later in life, served in the Bountiful Temple. He also served his country in the Army Reserves.

He is survived by his children, Deborah Brey, James (Heather) Brey, Kurt (Melinda) Brey, Kami (Tomo) Ishikawa, and Todd (Katie) Brey, 18 grandchildren, and 1 great-grandchild.
