Not sure what to say?

Losing you and then my dear friend, Marilyn, changed my life forever. She was devastated as was I. Too young to leave us.

I was just thinking of Clay tonight and thought I'd google him to try and touch base. Sadly I saw he had passed many years ago. Clay and I were neighbors in Hudson Ma, I lived above him and he directly below me. We would talk on our decks and he would come up to play backgammon occasionally - we played many intense games! He loved cooking and making Beef jerky, always had his kitchen packed with food. We and his kids along with my son had many meals together. One of the nicest guys and the...

I just this minute learned of Clay's passing. When I met him in 1979, he accepted me as a brother. I learned quickly that there would always be stories and adventure when he was around, even if it was just a trip to Fenway. We lost touch over the years and I've always asked about him. I'm deeply saddened to learn of him this way. He was a good man and a great friend and big brother. AaThinking of his family and friends

We were deeply saddened to hear of Clay's passing. Please accept belated condolences from the Greene family (Tom, Nancy, Roland, Cameron, Tim).

Ashley and Micah should know that your father was a wonderful friend to me. We shared a lot of life together, from playing cards at our fraternity until he left for work at midnight, to birthday parties and cookouts with our kids when all of you were little. I will treasure my memories of Clay, his big heart, and our adventures together for as...

I just learned of this, 2 days before Christmas, and it reinforces how especially sad it is and will be for Clay's family and loved ones at this time of year. As an example of Clay's talent of thinking outside the box, I fondly remember how excited Clay was on the occasion of the first snowfall one year in the mid-seventies, to be able to ski to work at Medi Tech. As one of his fraternity brothers, I extend my sympathy to all his family and friends. May his memory be eternal.

Clay was one of the first friends I made in college. Although we lost touch in recent years, I always thought of Clay as a brother. I'm truly saddened to hear of his passing. I extend heartfelt condolences to his family and loved ones.

So sorry to hear this news. I just found out, when I tried to contact Clay through his employer. He was my best friend since high school. As Clay liked to say, "Why was I not informed?" We did not see other in recent years, but whenever we'd get together it was as if no time has passed since our last visit. I am heartbroken at his passing, and distressed that he's been gone all these months, while I was thinking of him as alive and well ... and that I will not him again in this life.

Marilyn, I am so sorry to hear of Clay's passing, My condolences to you and to his family.
Love,
Chrissy Cicchino
