It seems that it was just yesterday we said good bye! But now Joe and Judy Clay have joined you. You all are still loved and missed greatly.

I met Boo and his family in the mid to late 1950s when my parents took us from Corpus Christi, TX to enjoy wonderful vacations at the Triple B Ranch for a couple of summers to escape the South Texas heat.

Boo, Derek and the Rev

You were truly one of a kind, Cuz, and it's why I've loved you for almost 60 years (and don't plan on stopping now). R.I.P.

You were a mentor and a friend. You were one of the best people I ever had the pleasure of knowing. Every once and a while someone comes along in our lives that we just click with instantly and you were one of those people I will miss you and I will see you on the other side brother. (Rick Allen)

I bet God will have his hands full with Boo and Eric togetjerr again .Thank you for being there for me and will see you again.God bless all the angles and your family!

Boo will be missed by all who knew him.

I cant help thinking that "Boo" is looking down on all of us and laughing at some joke that he is the only one privy to the punch line until his friends and family join him! Jaci Clay

As the days and weeks pass by may you always feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.
Most of my memories of "Boo" comes from the class reunions that I would go to with my Mother. It was a joy to me on those occasions, I could only imagine the joy he brought to his friends and family every day.
He will be loved and missed for many ears to come. My hart goes out to all of you! Jacquelyn Clay & Judy (Clay) Kaufman
