Clayton enjoyed spending time with his many family and friends. He had a life long dedication to his profession and to his community of Terrebonne Parish as a teacher and was a principal for many years. He was an active member in the parish and was a member of numerous organizations and clubs. He was most active in the Houma Civitan Club, was on the Pastorial Council at St. Ann Catholic Church in Bourg, LA, a member of the Regional War Museum in Houma, LA, Lagniappe Car Club, and the Good Tyme Campers.

He loved camping, traveling, fishing, hunting, working on his old car "Lizzie", and watching football and softball. He was often seen working in his vegetable garden, his yard, and pruning his citrus trees. He had a love of cooking and made homemade sausage and hog head cheese for his family and friends to enjoy. Most of all, Clayton celebrated life with his friends in LeCompte Subdivision, his children and grandchildren.

Clayton will be dearly missed by the many family and friends who he met through his lifetime.

The family would like to thank Hope Hospice and Home Instead Caregivers for the love and care given to Clayton and family. Many thanks to his doctors, nurses and all their support teams.

In lieu of flowers, the family ask for consideration Mass given for Clayton, or donations to be considered to Houma Civitan Club in his name, or the Regional War Museum in Houma, LA., or St. Ann Catholic Church.
