Great Friend from John Leming
I just found this out – almost one year later – Clay and I were great friends in high school – we attended a charity function for several years at R.A. Jones company, and did many nightly work events at his dads garage in Elsmere. He and Brian Beagle and I were great friends.
Clays favorite cigar was a Grenidier, we smoked many of them together. I miss spending those old days with him, but time and age got in the way! I will always remember his green 53 ford truck and the whiskey barrel! Clay I will have a beer and a grenidier for you today!

Words can’t describe my sadness of your passing. I’m grateful to have known you and learned some much from you. Thank you for being so kind to me, and being a great friend to this young man. I’ll always have you in my day to day thoughts, and my work. Rip my friend.

Truly Missed
Clay was one of the most talented people I had ever met. He was also a great businessman, and we felt truly blessed to have known Clay.
