Mr. Clifford Lee Akerstrom of Camrose, Alberta passed away at the St. Mary’s Hospital on Tuesday, January 9, 2024 at the age of 64 years. Clifford was loved by everyone. He was well known in the Camrose community as the guy who would always lend a hand, especially when it came to engines. He was a talented mechanic with a great work ethic, and he loved his Transmission Express family. Clifford loved his family, and the time that he spent with them meant the world to him. He was a cat guy, often helping with strays and always so proud to tell anyone who would listen all about his cat, Puddin’ whom he completely adored. He loved fishing with the family, camping, snowmobiling, going to the racetrack, building & driving hot rods and watching his granddaughter play hockey. Clifford was an honest man that always spoke his mind and carried himself with a lot of integrity. He was known for his amazing stories, his kindness, his ability to listen to an engine and diagnose a problem without even touching it & his willingness to help others. He was an avid fisherman, often referred to affectionately by his friends as “Captain” because Cliff could always find the fish. One of his favorite things to do was to teach new people, especially kids, how to fish and to make sure that when they were out with him that they always caught the first, and the most. Clifford was generous & knowledgeable with the advice that he gave, yet supportive & respectful of the decisions of others. He loved unconditionally and without judgement. He touched the hearts of everyone that he met and will be missed by his community, family and friends. Clifford is lovingly remembered by his parents, Fred and Reita Akerstrom, his son, Curtis Akerstrom, and his two daughters, Chrissy (Geoff) Wilson and Starla Vickers. He will also be deeply missed by his seven grandchildren, Candy, Robin, Aela, Cree-Lynn, Brooklynn, Kianna and Annalis, his great granddaughter Evermae and his two brothers, Clinton and Craig Akerstrom as well as numerous aunts uncles nieces, nephews & friends.
