Such a beautiful legacy. The video is beautiful. So privileged to have met Uncle Clay. Enjoyed the time we spent in his home looking at family pics, and going to some special places together. Wish we would have not been several states apart so we could have spent more time together. God be with the family during this time.. love you all❤️

So sorry for your loss. I didn’t know Dad, but i did get to know Mom a little, doing her hair a few times before she passed. My prayers are with you all.
