Clay Huston Obituary

Many fond memories of a great guy, father and husband.

To June, Christine, Claudia, Meg & Peter,
I am so sorry to hear of Clay's death. I remember him as our neighbor in Sauganash. He was quite a jovial character playing tricks on us kids with that smile of his.

I will remember Clay, how gracious, and always in good spirits, even when sailing Lake Michigan. I remember him cooking a barbeque for all on his boat one Sunday afternoon especially. It was beautiful.

He was a great father and husband. We all benefitted from his kindness, he is a blessed memory always.

June and your family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time. I will always remember Clay and his cheerful, happy ways. I will always remember you both taking Dan, myself and mom and dad out sailing. What fun we had! He was a very special man. Hold on to your sweet memories and know that he will always be with you.

To June Huston & Family

Clay was always friendly and pleasant. Always had a smile for everyone.We will miss him.

To June and Family,
Our families grew up together in Sauganash and I remember Clay fondly. He would pretend to "steal" our noses and was always fun. We all loved it when our families did something together. My father especially seemed to have a lot of fun with Clay. We will miss Clay and his wonderful personality.

All of the wonderful memories we have of Clay will be with us forever. June, you and your family are in our thoughts.

The Huston and Haggar Family,

We lost a great one. There must be a performance going on up there that is entertaining all the saints.

Love you and miss you all.

I was a rookie in 1966 when joing Haggar Co. Clay took me under his wing an mentored me. Will always be greatful. Our sincere love to you both.

Clay was a great man and an inspiration even in his death. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Clay was a friend, a visionary, a leader, a mentor and one of the best gentleman I ever had the privilege to know. He will truly be missed. My sincere condolences to June and the Huston family.

Peter,
My thoughts are with you and your family while you celebrate the "fine life of Clay." What a great way to continue a legacy. I am sure he will be missed by all but remembered with many fond memories. My best to your family and mother June.

My memories of Mr. Huston(#49 in my salesman book for Haggar and #889 in my Reed st James book) are so very close to my heart. He was an outstanding individual in his every contact which we had over a 30 year period. He will always be remembered for his gracious attitude to me. May you all be blessed in your sorrow.

Clay as in MUD and Huston as in TEXAS. Clay was a visionary, with character and integrity not historically seen in our industry. He taught me so much about people and life

Peter,
I am so very sorry to hear about Clay. Please extend my condolences to your family. Some of my earliest memories at Haggar involve your Dad. What a great guy!
Please give my best to Karen and know that I'm thinking of you at this time.

June and Family, Our sincere prayers and thoughts are with you. We loved Clay, and he was an inspiration to us. He was fun, smart, and loved people and his Lord. Thanks for sharing him with us.

June & Family, I am sorry about your loss. You and your children were so important in Clay's life, and as a young woman with young children of my own, we would share funny stories about our kids. Clay was an encourager to me and many others. It was my privilege to know him. God bless you all.

a special man, the best in his field, he will be missed. god bless

Peter.......
Your father was a great inspiration, and always made me feel comfortable
even when he was in control.
My sympathy to your entire family, and hoping the transition will be smooth and graceful.

Dear June and Family....our sincere sympathies for your loss. Clay was a great mentor and friend to many, but particularly to associates of the Haggar Apparel Co. His positive influence on me as a young apparel salesman has lasted me a lifetime. We will miss him greatly.

One of our all time leaders at Haggar. Thank you for the memories. Lord bless and be with your family at this time.

June, Peter and Family,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Clay was, and will always be my Hero, and a true friend expecially when I needed the support of colleagues at the begining of my career. Thank you Clay for just being you...

The world is without a wonderful man but heaven is graced by his presence.

I owe an awful lot to a teacher, a mentor, and a great example to look up to on a daily basis. While he will be missed, the memories will be a comfort and a reminder.

June--my deepest heartfelt sympathy. Watching the love and devotion you showed to Clay during his last days and his dependence on you--just wanting to know you were there--was one of the most touching and beautiful things in life I have ever witnessed !
I know how very much you will miss him June. My thoughts go out to you and your children during this time. I think a life celebration is an absolutely wonderful tribute to a man I and so many, loved very much. I know the many times you told me you were so thankful for Meg, Chris, Claudia and Pete who helped you through these difficult days.
Much love--

Celebrating a life well lived. We will cherish the memories forever.
