R.I.P. Brother! I always hold the memories of us as “kids†and teens riding our bikes to where we shouldn’t have. The many times I stayed at your house. And the trouble we sure could give Betty! And the laughter with Schaffer. Fly high! Kiss sister and niece for me!â¤ï¸â¤ï¸

Aunt Sue, Nina and Lil Eddie. I am so sorry to hear about Uncle Ed. He was a terrific Uncle and always fun to be around. I remember when you had the Halloween party when you lived in Middletown and also the fun times we had at grandma's during the holidays. Especially when he put us on his shoulders and spun us around...lol. RIP Uncle Ed. Til we meet again. I luv you.

I consider it a blessing that I had the opportunity to know Clayton and to hear him speak. I’m saddened to hear of his passing and for the emptiness that I know Sue and his family must feel. I’m hoping these few words from part of a bible verse gives a little comfort. “Precious in the eyes of the Lord is the death of his saintsâ€.
