It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Clayton Mark Randall, a beloved son, brother and friend. Clayton passed away tragically on May 24, 2025, at the age of 17, leaving behind a legacy of kindness, integrity, and devotion. His death has left a deep void in the hearts of all who knew him, but his memory will continue to inspire and guide those who were fortunate enough to be part of his life.
Clayton grew up in the close-knit community of Sylvan Springs, where he was known for his genuine warmth, easygoing nature, and tireless work ethic.
Clayton enjoyed many moments with friends, especially involving recreational boating, which they were participating in just before his passing.
Clayton's roots in Sylvan Springs were deep, and it was in this community where he formed lifelong friendships, and contributed to the local fabric of life. He had a love for the simple things—a walk in the woods, a gathering with friends, or a quiet evening with his loved ones.
Clayton’s humility and down-to-earth demeanor made him approachable, and he had a knack for making everyone feel welcome and valued.
Whether on the job or in his personal life, Clayton approached every task with a sense of responsibility and pride. He was the type of person who would go above and beyond to help others, often sacrificing his own time to ensure that those around him were taken care of.
Above all, Clayton’s greatest joy was his family. As a son, he was loving, patient, and incredibly supportive, always placing the needs of his children and loved ones above his own. His children remember him as a guiding light, someone who taught them the values of hard work, honesty, and compassion. He instilled in them the importance of loyalty and community, and his legacy will live on in the lessons he imparted to them.
Clayton was also a steadfast friend—loyal, reliable, and always ready with a joke or a helping hand. His ability to connect with people was unparalleled, and his sense of humor could brighten the darkest of days. He believed in the power of kindness, and his actions reflected this belief throughout his life.
Though Clayton Mark Randall is no longer with us, his memory will live on in the countless lives he touched. He was a man who lived with purpose, with love, and with an open heart. He will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing him.
Our hearts go out to Clayton’s family during this difficult time, and we offer our deepest condolences.
May his soul rest in peace, and may his memory continue to inspire and uplift all those who loved him.
