I knew Don from his work at the Upper Lake Grange. We had sought to open a 7-12 Charter school years ago to augment the work of the Upper Lake schools at that time. The Grange hosted the new Charter school, and we began serving students. Don was a good man who cared about others--and that certainly extended to the students that year. He'd dropped by the Grange to make sure everything was going well.
His mom Norma was also a supporter and a sweetheart to me personally. Good people, both of them.

Don was a welcome member of the ham radio community in Lake County. He faithfully supported the Senior Support Services by operating their radio in our Health Services communication drills. He selflessly sought to serve the community in many ways, always modest and quiet in his approach. We will miss him and will honor him as a "silent key" in the radio community.

We will miss Cousin Roy. He always did so much for the Clay reunion. He had everything we needed in his van. He was there for set up and clean up always. He had so much of the Clay family history. What a guy!!! Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.

Donald Leroy Clay was an inspiration to many who knew him. His knowledge of Ancestry.com was a joy for everyone who benefited from his work. Reading about his service time and experiences was also enjoyable. He was always a big help and had lots of interesting topics to share at the Clay family reunion. He will be missed.
Our condolences to his family. from Everett and Marjorie Clay's family. Henry, Lorraine, Margaret, Mary and family, and Melissa(Martha) and family
