Clayton started his education at Westmount Elementary. Clayton graduated from Westsyde Secondary School with the persistence and determination of his favourite teacher Janet Berness.
Clayton started work for Cobra Heavy Iron Ltd at a very young age, where he met his mentor (brother) Koyne Watson. Their bond never diminished. Later he joined the International Union of Operating Engineers Local 115 and started work at BA Dawson Blacktop with his dad.
Clayton was a hard-working, loyal, kind soul. He loved dirt biking spending time at the lake, eating pizza and chicken wings with his family & friends. He was always trying to protect his little sister Grace from the world. Now he can do it from up above.
We will love and miss you Forever.
