R.I.P My brother in-law. We never did get to talk much. I loved the quiet side of you. There are always things that go left unsaid until it too late. I remember your smile. I wish I would have gotten to know you better. I am grateful for when your brother (Willie) and I would have dinner at Mom and Dad's house you would come in quiet. I wish I could have known that quiet side of you. See you on the other side.

I am profoundly sorry for your family's loss. Robert was such a sweet, kind and gentle person. I have known him for more than 30 years and he always made me smile. He will truly be missed.

Clayton was a courtroom bailiff for many years and I was lucky enough to be the clerk in that courtroom. His gentleness of spirit could calm the most agitated defendant and soothe this sometimes panicky clerk. The world around him was always peaceful and calm...his passing leaves a gaping hole. My sincere condolences to his family.

My sympathy to the family. Larry Winfree (Retired Deputy NNSO). Clayton will be missed by all. He was always jolly and said good things about all, even though I remember him being somewhat quiet. A really great guy and a good person to work with.
