This hurts my heart to hear this news. My thoughts and prayers are with Jean ,Tina and the rest of the Lucus family. I have such nice memories of this sweet man.

Jean, Clevie, Tina, my heart is breaking for you. Cleve and Dad (Albert Burr) were close like brothers and we all loved him so much. We are praying for yall.
Cleve was my farrier and friend over ten years. He was the only farrier my horses ever loved and each time he came to the farm I always learned something new from him. Cleve was a straight shooter but he always had a gentle compassionate touch for animals and the people he loved. He will be greatly missed and we are sorry sorry for your loss.
Cleve was such a wonderful man. Loved him like a daddy. He will be greatly missed. Praying for family and friends.
We are so sorry for your loss… We enjoyed all our wagon trains with him… We had some good time together camping and riding horses..
Cleve will most certainly be missed. He was always a good friend to my family and me. He worked on our horses starting in 1993 and became my friend over the years. He loved his family and his country and made no bones about it. JW
