Connie Balder Mickolajak recalls Clifford Balder: "He was a good man. I had my second cousin, Ruth Cook, out with my mother on Sunday and we spoke of Cliff. She grew up with Cliff and they lived on the next farm. He also knew my two aunts [now dead] who came from Minot, ND to visit with my grandmother, Anna Delaney Balder. My aunts were Luella and Dorothy Balder."
