My Heart goes out to you all at this devastating time. Klay was such a character, always made me laugh, he had something hilarious up his sleeve everytime… there was never a dull moment. I don’t think there are any words that truly justify how much his presence will be missed and just how much of an impact he has had in soo many lives…Rest in peace my friend.
Much Love X

To Linda & Gary and all the family. What a great loss to all of you. A young man who hasn’t lived a full life as we know it. Klay will surely be missed by us and a best special mate to Alan. They spent a lot of time together. Please know that Klay was always welcome and joined in whatever was happening in our house. He was full of cheek and lots of teasing around us. May he be at peace now and forever. The clarke family send our deepest sympathy and condolences on your family’s loss.
