Mr. Clifton Edward Ingram, Jr. was born October 31, 1965 in Forsyth County, NC to the late Clifton and Mattie Mumford Ingram, Sr. He was educated in the WSFC schools and was a proud graduate of East Forsyth High School.

Clifton was employed with R.J. Reynolds Cold Storage for over 20 years. He became a school bus driver with the WSFC schools in 2015 and loved his job. He was very fond of his students and often played music for them on his bus as they waited to enter the school in the morning. He was loved by many students as they affectionately called him "Mr. Clif." He also worked for Hoosier Transport as a driver delivering buses all over the country. Many can remember him waving from the parking lot of the BP Gas Station as he stood outside while working there part-time.

Clifton was a member of New Jerusalem Missionary Baptist Church where he worked with the Food Ministry, Vacation Bible School, and was deemed the church grill master!
