Kenneth Ray Clay, 77 (Known affectionately as”Pop”) of Hamilton, Alabama born December 14, 1942, in Marion County, Alabama to J.A. Clay and Lynn Elizabeth Clark Clay died Tuesday, May 5, 2020, after an extended illness.
Kenneth was a Godly man that loved his family, his friends, his church, and Alabama Football. He especially loved spending time with his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. All of us knew that each time we called him or visited, the last thing he would say to us is “if you need anything, you call “Pop”. He meant every word. He is the rock that held his family together. He will be missed by many.
