This memorial website was created in memory of our loved one, Clarence Layfield Jr, 55 years old, born on June 3, 1960, and passed away on January 17, 2016. We will remember him forever.
Can't believe it has been 5 years, miss you so very much, everyone does we always take everything for granted could have spent more time with you even if it was just mushroom hunting. Gone but not forgotten
Does not seem like it has been four years, sure hasn't gotten any easier. I think of you often, especially when I'm walking around out in the woods. that is what you really enjoyed, so peaceful. Still miss that lil giggle of yours and just seeing you period, sometimes life just isn't fair
Can't believe you are 59. Seems like yesterday you was that little chubby,curly haired baby. Boy I miss hearing your giggles when we'd talk. I could always count on you in my times of need. There wasn't a more loyal and kind hearted person than you. Years are passing by quickly so it won't be long until I see you again . love you baby boy.
Just remembered today is your birthday wanted to wish you a happy birthday I think of you often and I miss you terribly sometimes I still hear that little giggle that you had you would be proud of me I found lots of mushrooms this year not only were we cousins but I think we were great friends miss you

I cannot express how much all these postings mean to JR'S family and all who knew him. Each message describes the brother I've always known. He and Tim have always had that special place in my heart that no one else has ever shared. Hold your families tightly. God bless each and everyone who knew JR
Well here I am again posting! My family really thought a lot of JR. We have only knew JR. for 13 years but in that time we have grown to love him so much. We have spent a lot of time with him in those years. I am writing again because we had some really great memories happened in the snow:) Years ago we got a really big snow storm and we all crowded up like sardines and over loaded Mike Siers Chevy van and went backroad roading which we all loved to do and then across Myers Fork and went to Brian Fosters grandpas cabin. We had so make fun. We all played in the snow. We had many snowball fights. I can remember JR. made the best snowballs ever! They did hurt a tad because he had a arm of steel. After he threw one you heard that little cackle he made! Lol! We so loved that cackle!! JR was a kid at heart!! The things we take for granted he didn't! He lived off the land enjoyed all the finer things in life! He loved his Brother Tim, Miss Daisy, family, friends and the beautiful earth!! R.I.P. Our Friend!!! OXOXOXOX
I still cant believe ur gone, I wish I would have been around more the last couple years. I cant help but feel like I could have prevented this,I know its not my fault but I cant help but feel responsible. Other than mark, u and tim are the closest thing ive had to a dad, u were always there no matter what was goin on or what I did wrong. I love u uncle JR I NEVER FORGET YOU, I just hope were ever your are you have a beer in your hand and a smile on your face. I'll see you again one day
I loved sitting at the kitchen table at grandma layfields as the "boys" would be cutting up deer to ground and uncle jr would let me drop the meat in. I remember feeling so big. And then I got to crank it a couple times. And when he would drive us up the hill in his truck to the cabin and sometimes when it was muddy we would slide a bit and he would just be giggling like a lil boy while we were bouncing around!
Such a kind man with a heart of gold, and that giggle could make anyone smile! You may be gone but you will never be forgotten, you will never know how many lives you touched. Prayers to all the friends and family, you will be greatly missed!
He was a gentleman always spoke to me with respect and kindness. I'm sure he will be missed by all that know him. God be with his family and friends at this trying time.
You are definitely one of a kind. I will cherish our memories of now and when we were growing up. Like so many I will never forget that Lil giggle of yours. I will never forget you.
I'll always remember you coming to my mom and John house with Joe and drinking. You were a great man and your laugh was contagious. Your with the angels now and you'll be forever missed. RIP JR
UNCLE JR you were one of gods true angels you up there helping with my cabin and would be there waiting on us to get there laughing saying where you all been your smile the fun we had means more to me than you will ever know I LOVE YOU UNCLE JR R.I.P. WE WILL MEET AGAIN PUNKIN HEAD
JR, I've known you for many years. So sorry this had to happen to you. Any one who knew you can honestly say that you'd never hurt anyone . The world can use a few more like you. RIP.
I'll never understand this....but some things are never meant to be understood. Although I didn't know you personally, you were one of my brother's (Wayne Cornell) Cairo boys. And you always waved at me every time I drove by. I know you were a good man and I'm sorry this happened to you. May your sweet soul RIP. I'm sure Wayne and Randy and Greg have already greeted you for a Cairo boys reunion.
RIP JR, I will never forget you. I remember when you helped Rusty Sprouse doing work on our house. You always had a story to tell and have us laughing. RIP
In my many years of knowing you, working with you at Asplundh and drinking with you I have never met a more caring, helpful, funny, smiling, giggling or more thoughtful person. One less country boy, gone way too soon.... Ritchie county is getting smaller and smaller!!! Drink one for me my friend and give those angels a chance to know you, Jar. You always giggled when I'd call you that. R. I. P. Dear friend!!!!!!!!
JR we started 1st. grade together and been friends ever since, you are gone way before your time and you will be Greatly missed by many. Had not seen you for a while, but you are in a better place than I and you will be reunited with your Mom and Dad. You were one of Gods children. RIP my friend and may we see each other again one day. Until we meet again take care my friend.
Hi JR. Ever time I drive by your house it seems so strange not seeing a big garden there. You were taken from this world way too early. Gone but not forgotten. RIP.
