Beverly C. Clayton

Left us to be with the Lord on February 21st, 2014 at age 86. Born January 4th, 1928 to Helen Carol (Semones) Conger and Garth Mason Conger. She resided most of her life in Lake Forest Park or nearby in Lynnwood and Bothell. Predeceased by her parents and brother, Garth Semones Conger.

Bev worked at Northern Life Insurance Company for 10 years as a key punch operator. A loving caring mother to Kathy Lynn Clayton Nysether and John Moyer Clayton III. Survived by her children and their spouses, Brad Nysether and Crystal Bay Clayton; four grandchildren, Drew (Kelly), Mackenzie, Nils and Inga; two great grandchildren, Elli and Hudson; her ex-husband, John “Jack” Moyer Clayton Jr. (Virginia); her lovely sister-in-law, Bea Conger; and nieces and nephews. At Beverly’s request please join us for a Celebration of Her Life at Teo’s Mia Roma, 7614 NE Bothell Way , Kenmore, WA on Saturday March 22nd, 2:00 – 5:00pm. There will be no formal service. In lieu of flowers she would like donations made in her honor to the Lake Forest Park Presbyterian Church Mission Trips, or your favorite charity.

Miss me a little – but not too long and not with your head bowed low. Remember the Love that we once shared.

Beyond Life's Gateway

There's an open gate

At the end of the road

through which each must go alone.

And there, in a light we cannot see,

Our Father claims His own;

beyond the gate, your loved one

finds happiness and rest.

And there is comfort in the thought

that a loving God knows best.
