Re: RIP Cliff Matlock
This is an edit that I sent out yesterday, The Matlock family needs our help in this tragic time, here is what I know: As some of you know already
Cliff Matlock passed away yesterday, Saturday February 2nd. He and Marla were down in Mexico with 2 other razors doing what they loved. They were
outside of Ojos when they came around a blind corner and a Jeep Cherokee was on their side of the road. Cliff tried to avoid the Jeep by turning to
the right with little time and from what I was told Cliff was t-boned by the Jeep. I was told he passed instantly and did not suffer. Marla is bruised
up and has a sore back but she is okay health wise.
The family is down in Mexico right now trying to get all the paperwork done to bring Cliff home tomorrow. As Kristen said, they are in “race mode”
right now just trying to get Cliff home. The reality of this tragedy has not sunk in yet.
