Cliff Baldwin

Cliff Baldwin, 64, of Glenroy, passed away peacefully at home on September 3, 2025, following an extended illness. He was born on July 15, 1961, in Toledo, Ohio, son of the late Clifford Guy Baldwin and Marianne (Kalquist) Rippeth, who survives. He leaves behind a legacy of love and memories that will forever be etched into the hearts of his family and friends.

Cliff was known for his dedication and hard work, spent many years as a forklift operator at Bellisio Foods in Jackson, Ohio, where he was respected by his coworkers for his commitment and friendliness. Outside of his professional life, he had a passion for life that was reflected in his various interests and hobbies. A motorcycle enthusiast, Cliff adored riding through the open roads and spending time outdoors. He enjoyed fishing from his boat, where the serenity of the water allowed him to unwind and connect with nature. He was also someone who found joy in fixing things, always willing to lend a hand to anyone in need of assistance.

Family was at the center of Cliff's life. He is survived by his beloved mother, Marianne Rippeth; his devoted wife, Kim Baldwin; son Jason (Kelly), daughters, Jessica (Brian), and Jennifer (Sabrina). Cliff was also a proud grandfather to Devon, McKenzi, Serenity, Terryn, Katie, Gavyn, and Emilee, each of whom brought him immense joy. He shared a close bond with his brothers, Randy and Scott (Melissa), and his mother-in-law, Luella McManaway, along with several nieces and nephews.

In addition to his father, Cliff was preceded in death by his brother, DJ; his brother-in-law, Michael Harvey; and his son-in-law, Sean Boggs.

Among his simple pleasures, Cliff had a special fondness for watching his favorite television show, "The Curse of Oak Island," which provided him with hours of entertainment and enjoyment. His engaging personality and kind heart made him a dear friend to many and a guiding presence to those who knew him.
