I was one of Layton's aides at South Davis Community Hospital as well in 2022. He was one of the most spunky, smart, unique, and understanding person I have ever known. I remember that whenever I would go into his room he would shout, "Alexa! Play Layton's Playlist!" All the staff would jam out to his music in his room. I am sad to hear about his passing, he was amazing and treated me well. Thank you Layton for all the laughs! We love you!
