Clay will eternally be the love of my life! I miss him more than words could ever express. He was taken so unexpectedly I do not know if I have actually accepted that he is gone. He was my person and I believe that I was his. Somehow we always ended up back together. I am so glad he was with me and the girls when the Lord called him home. Thank you to A Natural State funeral services staff for helping our family through this difficult time.
This is Clay’s sister Christine. I just recently found out. I am so sorry. I would have came if I had known. I haven’t seen him in many years but I loved him.

To all of Clay’s family…I am so sorry for your loss. I went to school with Clay starting in the first grade. he was always so sweet. Stacye, I know you are hurting and if only there was a way to turn back the clock and have even just one more minute to say…anything, to our loved ones that we have lost. I hope you find peace and when it’s hard to find…just remember Clay’s love for nature and look to something beautiful…he will be there. Clay…to my former classmate and Hornet…Peace to you, you crazy guy!
