Uncle Clayton was the kindest man I’ve ever known. Melinda, Cindy, I’m so sorry for your loss. Wish we could be there, just so many miles between us. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
My beloved uncle who was more like a brother since we grew up together, separated in age by only 6 years, was a righteous man and I know is in heaven without a doubt. It is hard to imagine this earth without him. He will be missed so very much even if he is in a better place. It is comforting that we can see him again someday. May your sweet memories of your dad bring you comfort. His legacy and that of our granddad lives on through you, Melinda and Cindy. What a wonderful heritage with which we have been blessed!
