Not sure what to say?

So very sorry about Clayton's passing.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I remember Elmer when he and Shirley and Barbara started school at Woody Gap. They were a very hard working and nice family. Rest In Peace Elmer.

So sorry for your loss

Clayton was a good friend that I got to know working with him at Union County High School gym. A very caring man who taught alot of common sense to young people while being a paraprofessional. He was a good listener when I would vent to him about my life's problems. He was a hero and a veteran of the Vietnam war. I will miss him a very great deal.

I am so sorry to hear of Clayton's passing. I enjoy listening to him and his stories at the coffee clutch at the fitness center. He always had a joke or two.

Prayers going out to his family and friends. Cherish your memories f this awesome man.

With Regards,
Gretchen and Steve Everman

Clayton always treated me well during my time in Blairsville and during my tenure at UCHS. We had a lot laughs during his time as a Substitute teacher at the High school. I would often receive a phone call from Clayton as he would check to see how I was doing years after leaving Blairsville. You will definitely be missed my friend.

Mr. Ramsey, Cricket, Kelly, and Kerry were good next door neighbors to our family for over 30 years until my mom sold her home on the very same day Clayton went homo to be with the Lord. Things wont be the same, but Im thankful for many fond childhood memories with the two wonderful daughters he and Mary Francis raised, and I know he was so proud of them and his beautiful granddaughter Haylen. I offer my deepest condolences and many prayers.

Mr. Ramsey, Cricket, Kelly, and Kerry have been good next door neighbors to my family for over 30 years. I have so many wonderful childhood memories with his girls and I know he was so proud of them and his granddaughter Haylen. He was a proud veteran, and he and Mary Francis raised two strong, good ladies. I offer my sincerest condolences to the family and pay my respects. On behalf of the Arnold family, may he rest in peace.
