So sorry to hear about Clayton's passing. I worked with Clayton on a few projects over the years at Whirlpool. He was a good man who will be missed.

Clayton was the most unique person I ever had the privilege to know. He was also one of the smartest people I ever worked with. I was a Test Engineer at Whirlpool for 33 years. I met him on advise of the engineer I replaced at work and worked with him on numerous projects from 1984 until he retired in 1998. I continued working with Leroy, who had a great teacher, until I retired last year. He was the best! I miss his smile, wit , and most of all, his robust belly laughs! God has received one heck of a designer who can come up with any fix for problems behind those pearly gates! Prayers and condolences to Leroy, Sandra and other family members. He was one of a kind and will always be thought of with fond memories by me. God bless and keep him.

As a student of Tri-Rivers, JVS Machine Trades Program during the late 1970's, Clayton hired myself and another student to work as machinist at AST Machine in the afternoons and evenings. I fondly remember Clayton's tutelage on machining and machine designs. In addition, I remember Clayton's love of mid 1970's Cadillac convertibles in which he possessed six or seven low mileage models. Equal to his love of Cadillac convertibles was his collection of high-end, collectible firearms, he often proudly brought new acquisitions into the shop for all to admire. Finally, and most importantly, I remember Clayton's jovial smile, his laugh and his love of life.
