Clifton was born on June 5, 1914 to John and Maudie Duncan in 
Stigler, Oklahoma.

He is preceded in death by his wife of 30 years, Callie Graham 
Duncan. His surviving children are Earl Wayne and Shirley Duncan of 
Stigler, OK, Patricia and Ron Adams of Ft. Smith, Ark., and Fern and 
Frank Witt of Bakersfield and numerous grandchildren and great 
grandchildren. He is preceded in death by one great granddaughter, 
Kylie Duncan of Stigler, OK. Step children, Earl James and Jimmy 
Graham and son-in-law, Durlin Richardson also preceded his death. 
Surviving step children are Claudia Richardson and Doyle Graham of 
Bakersfield and Rena and Roger Lasch of Glendora.

Clifton is preceded in death by his beloved mother and father and his 
brother, Kenneth Duncan. He is survived by his brother and sister-in-
law, Earl and Elaine Duncan of Bakersfield who graciously cared for 
Clifton during his time of rehabilitation, due to a recent hip 
replacement surgery. Our appreciation is offered to the doctors and 
nurses at Memorial Hospital and Health South for the loving care that 
they extended to our father. He dearly loved his little sister Cora, 
who married Frank Denham of Klammath Falls, Oregon. Dad lost his 
mother at the age of 13, but was given a loving and secure home by 
his father, John Duncan, and together the family cared for Cora, who 
was 6 months old at the time of their mothers death.

Our father was a quiet and faithful man that worked at his cousin, 
Bonnie and Dutch Tyners farm for 40 years. Dad had a storng belief in 
his Savior Jesus Christ and attended the New Life Christian Center 
with his daughter Fern.

Dad entered eternal life at the home of his beloved brother and 
sister Earl and Elaine Duncan of Bakersfield. Dad has reunited with 
his family in Heaven, and he was especially excited about seeing his 
mother that he lost at the age of 13.

In my fathers house are many mansions and our Dad has gone home.

Through our faith in Jesus Christ and his grace, we will see our 
precious Dad again.
