Love Always!!!

Always thinking of you and family gone before.

To David Sr, David Jr, Linda, Donnie, Joe, and family of MaryAnn Clay,

It is still hard to believe Ms. Clay is not on this earthly plane with us. But heaven truly has one of the sweetest angels in his presence now. Even though she is no longer just a phone call away, she is just a prayer away. I believe she will live forever in our hearts and minds, and be remembered for her caring, gentleness, generosity, beauty and wisdom. I miss my friend. I love you and will think of you...

On that day, walking threw the garden. He saw a beautiful flower...
