We are sorry to hear about Clay's passing. Alzheimer's disease is devastating...we know, we've been there with Sylvia's dad. Remember him in his good days like we do when we worked together at Saturn. He was always a gentleman and a great partner to Linda and his family. We know he is in a better place with our Lord. Thanks for the memories Clay Corder. Peace be with you and your family.

Clay was an awesome leader and my mentor. He made Saturn an awesome place to work. He represented C crew and we had one hell of a team. When he and Linda decided to retire and move to Texas we were happy and sad but knew the reasons why. He loved his wife and kids soooo much. As soon as I was told of his passing this comment came into my head he would say to me--I would walk into the office and say "I don't feel like doing anything today and he's say what is the difference between today and yesterday." He was so quick on slamming ya-- I sure loved that guy. God rest your soul and God bless you Linda, you were definitely his soul mate
