Rachel Gilmore says
I was so sad to hear this news. I worked with Clayton at the Alexandria Walmart. I worked on the opposite end of the store but would always find my way over to chat with Clayton. He was a wonderful man; full of charisma and humor. I knew if I was having a bad day, I could always talk to Clayton and he would make me feel better or at least make me laugh a lot. I enjoyed keeping in touch with him via facebook after I stopped working with him. You are all in my thoughts. My deepest sympathies.
