It is requested that you wear Alabama or your favorite team attire to the viewing and service. To all the “other” team fans, Clay understood that y’all were unique. When the Lord said “Tide” y’all thought he said “cried” because of all your team’s losses to us.
In lieu of flowers the family requests donations be made in Clay’s name to St. Judes Children’s Hospital of Alabama or a children’s charity of your choice.
The family would like to express a special thanks to his Mt. Ebron Church family.
