He retired in April 1993 and then began a notable career in Real Estate in January 1994-2019. Cleo trained and mentored many realtors and helped numerous families throughout his career. For those who had the chance to work with Cleo knew how special he was. He was passionate about his work and enjoyed helping people.
He was a remarkable story teller, he was a loyal friend, and his work ethic was simply legendary. Cleo touched a lot of lives and he will be sorely missed.
