He was a great man that everyone enjoyed being around and loved dearly. He was affectionately known to his family as “Poppie”. Cleo was very loving and devoted to Judy. He was dedicated to his family and had a kind, gentle way about him. Cleo loved to travel, work in his garden, and spend time with his family and friends fishing and crabbing on the Patuxent River.
