The Cliff Pat Motel was built some 50 years ago. This great neon sign has lit the skies of Langley, OK ever since. The current owner purchased the motel 40 years ago. At that time he changed the name to, Cliff Pat Motel. Thus, that portion of the sign was changed to reflect the new owner's chosen name. No idea what it was prior to the change, nor what Cliff Pat means. This beauty is located at; 330 S 3RD ST in Langley, OK. The neon is working just fine! Langley, OK.
