Later in life, he enjoyed his love of his Harley Davidson motorcycle and spent many weekends riding throughout the Dallas Metroplex with his friends. In addition to these hobbies, Clay spent his time teaching Sunday School to teenagers in his home church as well as serving as a baseball umpire in various youth leagues in the Dallas area.
