Clifford Donald Sullins

His Legacy… Clifford Donald Sullins, 64, passed away October 13, 2019. He was born on September 22, 1955, in Detroit, Michigan to Lawrence Irving Sullins and Norma Jean (Howd) Sullins. Cliff married the love of his life, Janet (Murphy), on September 12, 1998, in White Lake, Michigan. He spent 23 years as an automotive designer. Cliff will be remembered as a gifted songwriter and performer, having composed many songs as messages to his family, who meant everything to him. Music was at the center of his world; whether it was writing, teaching, jamming, performing or sharing with the Shalom Praise Band. He could be counted on to use his music to connect to people where words sometimes could not, and it was his true gift. His Family… Cliff will be missed by his wife, Janet; his children, Brian (Brittany) Sullins, Shannon (Mark) Cain, James and Halle; his mother, Norma; brother Paul; and grandchildren Saige and Barrett. He is preceded in death by father, Lawrence and Sister-in-Law, Patricia. His Farewell… Cliff’s family and friends will gather on Saturday, November 2, 2019 at Shalom Lutheran Church from 2:00PM until the time of his Community Farewell at 4:00PM. Pastor Kurt Hutchens will serve as celebrant. Memorial contributions are suggested to Shalom Lutheran Church- music ministry. Please leave a message of comfort for Cliff’s family at 1-877-231-7900, or sign his guestbook at www.borekjennings.com.
