Clayton was one of my best friends from Johnston Junior High days. We kept in touch through the 80s, mostly via our mothers, but that broke down in the 90s. I had not heard anything about him in 20 years and was quite saddened by his untimely death, as well as Ginger's and their daughters. Three deaths in one family in such a short time is so tragic.

Clayton......wow...did we ever have fun together. This is really to Allison. This is Gary Baird and you wanted to know more about your father. I remember you when you were very little and your sister as well. I am deeply sorry about their passing. It was a real shock to me.
Clayton and I met at Bellaire HS. We played bridge almost every weekend before you were born. He was in the honors program at the Univ of Houston. We were both draft elgable so we got a 2S deferment for going to college instead of Viet-Nam. Clayton had his Green Belt in Ta-Quan-Do. (I probabbly mispelled that)
We borh went to orantation at U of H. We road elevators up and down all night. That is where we both met our future wives. We had to get a "C" average to stay out of the draft. When the lottary dates were drawn for the draft, Clayton drew number 21. I drew 356. Having a number 21 was bad. Clayton had to keep a C average. My number was so high they were never going to go that far in the draft.
There is so much I can tell you about your parents. We were very close friends. Email me at waves12@duck.com. I hope you read this and give me a shout. You should be very proud of both your parents.
