To Clayton and his family,

My condolences for you and there are no words to describe this huge loss.

Clayton, we had great times as classmates, teammates at Austine and as roommates at NTID. Oh those wild crazy laughters we had, calling each other names like nincompoop and so on.

You have done extremely well and you have my greatest respect and admiration. It was an honor to know you and have you as my friend.

Amazing, the word "PAH", you used to...

With deepest sympathy to the family, our childhood neighbors. Clay was a sweet, sensitive soul. I'm not surprised to learn he became a poet. Kathleen (Kathy LeClair) Carter for the entire LeClair family.

Clayton
When you left, I felt a sudden pain. As emptiness, a sudden rain. For you took with you a piece of us all. Some of our hearts, some of our smiles, some of our joys, some of our all.

But Clayton, you left behind something for us all. And that Clayton, we're all grateful for.

You left behind your memories a gift to us all.

We can remember your smile, your laughter and joy. We'll remember your determination, your confidence and coy. ...

I love you uncle Clayton *smiles*

Love Jace

The family,freinds and the world has lost a true gift from GOD.

Dear Kim and family

Our prayers are with you. We know Kim and her family very well. We did not know her hubby's family very well. Wish we could have known him he must be fun to be one of the friends. May God Take Care of him.
