Clifford Eugene Harbert

Clifford Eugene Harbert, born on September 17, 1944, to Leslie and Willie Lee Harbert, lived a life filled with love, family, and purpose. In 1972, he married Pamela Harbert, and together they were blessed with five children: Clifford Jr. Harbert (who preceded him in death), Ladonna Baskin, Isaac Harbert, Cornelius Harbert, and Cecilia Harbert. From a previous relationship, Clifford also had two lovely children, Donald Harbert and Bernice Harbert. Later in his journey, Clifford found love again, marrying Delores Pryor in 1996, who preceded him in death.

Clifford was one of twelve siblings. He was predeceased by his four brothers: Oliver Harbert, Charles Harbert, Billy Calvin Harbert, and George Harbert, as well as six sisters: Perlie May, Leslie, Martha Sue, Janie Marie, Betty Ann, and Barbara Ann. His parents, Willie Lee and Leslie Harbert also preceded him in death. His sole surviving sibling is Billy Joe Harbert. Together, these family members lovingly await Clifford in his eternal rest.

Professionally, Clifford owned a painting business for a time before retiring from United Engines in Oklahoma City. Above all else, he cherished being surrounded by his family and loved ones. He was known for his remarkable kindness, dedication, and the lasting impact he left on those around him.

Clifford had a permanent passion for storytelling and learning about his family’s roots and genealogy, which brought him great joy and a sense of connection. One of his favorite pastimes was singing and harmonizing with his siblings, a cherished activity that increased the unique bond they shared. The connection between Clifford and his siblings was persistent and unbreakable, a relationship that remained constant.

He leaves behind a remarkable legacy of dignity, love, and memories that will forever be treasured. Clifford will be profoundly missed by his family, friends, and everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.

Rest well, Daddy.
