Beloved singing friend and dining friend of Morris Wolff at Amherst College with many others feeling the very same way at Amherst '58. We
keep many memories of good conversations and singing moments of and of songs and harmony and"Paige's Horse" still being in a snow drift". Clay had the most wonderful smile and temperament. He brought a genuine charm with him and made you happy that you were there when ever he arrived. He would appreciate this comment.
Life was alway spontaneous with Clay, and that was a wonderful thing; spontaneous, fresh and new and fun. That's why he was fun to be with

I want to extend my condolences to you, Sally because I just found out that Clay passed away. I was born in the same year as Clay in Providence, Rhode Island but never met him. I admired both of you & could just feel the "special" love between you. May the wonderful memories of Clay sustain you & I loved hearing the two of you sing. God bless you, Sally.

I met Sally and Clay Hart in Melbourne at the Melbourne Auditorium during a intermission with a concert. They were so nice to me and my sister. I have their autographs. I always watched them on the Lawrence Welk Show. My condolences and prayers to
Sally Hart. The Lord Is My Shepherd. Psalm 23.

Cousins in Memphis lamenting Clay's passing...Emily passed away in late 2022 and I stumbled upon this sad news while researching family photos. Clay and Sally were very kind to our family.

This man is NOT the Clay Hart from the Welk show and is not the husband of Sally Flynn.
