Steve Clayton Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

St. George, Utah – Steve Clayton, 75, passed away on March 3, 2021, in St. George, Utah at his home surrounded by his family. He was born on December 3, 1945, in Martinez, California to David and Louise Clayton. He married Pamela Kay Smart in Salt Lake City, Utah on June 4, 1968. Flying like a Free Bird and singing to the tune of Sweet Home Alabama, Steve has returned home. It was too early to Enter Sandman, and we are both saddened and grateful for his leaving this Earth. His pain was so great, he is now Surfin’ Safari in the warmth of the golden sun. Watching baseball and listening to music were always something he was involved in. Playing air guitar and air conducting the orchestra made him a band member in all of his favorite groups. Making and eating pizza were the favorite of his careers, and more importantly, seeing and talking to people at the Pizza Cutter always created a smile, and put a pep in his step. Fishing on Montana’s Stillwater may be one of his most memorable experiences. The River helped shaped his bonds with his dad and brother, which, as he progressed in life, he let flow into creating his life. Spending time with family, laughing, and reviewing his life is how he spent his last days here on Earth. He asks you to celebrate, play air guitar and enjoy the Peaceful Easy Feeling as you remember him! He is survived by: spouse, Pam; Nikki Nelson (Andrew) St. George, Utah; Chris Clayton (Brandi) Washington, Utah; and Kaytee Clayton St. George, Utah; Grandchildren Tanner, McKinlie, Carter, Hunter, and Kambrie; Brother Roger Clayton; Father in Law Dale Smart. He was preceded in death by: Grandson Oliver B.C. Clayton; Parents David and Louise Clayton; Brother Philip Clayton; Mother in Law MarJean Smart. The family would like to thank Encompass Hospice, especially Carla and Tammy for their tender care. There will be a Celebration of Life, Steve’s way with food and rock n’ roll, it will be held this Saturday, March 6, 2021 at 1:00 p.m. Please message the family for location if you’d like to attend.
