Clifford Stauffer was a self-taught tradesman whose projects included houses, airplanes and miniature semi-trucks. A horseman and motorcyclist, he acquired his last bike and horse at 81. He would only get two years of enjoyment out of them. At age 83, in the early hours of June 2021, a group of four to five adults drove up to his rural Alberta home, bludgeoned him to death and lit his house on fire with his body inside. Then, they stole his van.
