Michael Claytor Obituary
Mr. Claytor was born on July 14, 1954 in Ohio and was the son of the late Henry Thomas Claytor and Dorothy (Yancey) Claytor.
In 2019, he retired from Shickel Corporation as a design engineer. Michael enjoyed listening to music, spending time in the garden, vacationing at the beach, and walks in the park.
Surviving family members include his beloved companion of 35 years, Sandra Meadows; two bonus children, five grandchildren, six great-grandchildren, two siblings and their families, and a special friend who was like a brother.
Michael was a wonderful man, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather. He will be greatly missed by those who loved him.
In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by a brother, Charles Marvin Branum.
In keeping with Michael's wishes, there will be no formal services.
