Clifford Willis Bush was born July 1, 1916 near Britton to W.E. and Ida (Kincaid) Bush. He grew up on the family farm and attended rural Marshall County school in Stena Township. He was active in 4-H throughout his school years. He graduated from Britton High School in 1936, where he excelled in football. He continued his education at South Dakota State College in Brookings where he studied agriculture for three years. During his time there, Cliff was chosen to represent South Dakota as a part of the national judging team in Chicago. On October 7, 1939 he married Beulah Jean Warnstadt at Rock Rapids, IA. They moved to the Bush family farm west of Britton, where they farmed, raised their family and made their home until 1992. At that time they moved into Britton. Beulah died March 5, 2005.
When Cliff took over the farm, it was a multi-faceted operation. He began to specialize in Registered Angus Cattle, something he had begun with his dad at the age of 11. With the help of his son and grandson, that herd has produced national champions and is well respected across the country. Cliff was a charter member of the South Dakota Angus Association, and served as president in 1952, and had received the Honored Breeder Award. He was instrumental in organizing the South Dakota Production Record Association and a pioneer on the importance in the area of record keeping for herds.
Cliff was the oldest lifelong member of the Britton United Methodist Church and filled several offices over the years. He had served on the building committee when the new church was built and was extremely proud when the mortgage was burned. He was a 50 year member of the Order of the Eastern Star, the Scottish Rite, and was a member of the Britton Masonic Lodge for over 61 years, where he was a Life Member and Past Master. He had served as a 4-H Leader, and in his younger years Cliff enjoyed pitching horseshoe, hunting and fishing. Lately, Cliff's favorite pastimes would include playing cards and visiting with friends.
Cliff was an excellent welder, and a prolific inventor. He could look at anything, and see a way to make it work easier and better. He and Beulah had been avid sports fans, and seldom missed local games. Pocket gophers in Stena Township lived in fear of Cliff Bush!
Cliff was a farmer, first, foremost and always. He was proud of the birthright he had received from his father before him, and extremely pleased to be able to pass that heritage on to subsequent generations.
Survivors include; his four children: Donna (Jerry) Roslawski, Omaha, NE, James (Carol) Bush, Britton; Ronald (Mim) Bush, Phoenix, AZ, Peggy (Tom) Albertsen, Omaha, NE; nine grandchildren; eight great-grandchildren; a brother, Martie (Arlene) Bush, Britton; and two sisters: Evelyn (Hank) Cimburek, Upton, WY and Helen Clause, St. George, UT.
