Lorene Clayton

Lorene Clayton was born June 8,1942 to the late Virge and Carrie (Wade) Walsh in Durant, MS. She departed this earth on Saturday, February 27, 2021, leaving a huge void in the lives of all who loved her. Lorene was a member of The Whole Truth Church of God in Christ where she served as Mother of the church. She worked many years for Olin Chemical Co. Lorene travelled quite extensively during her life. She was a lover of BINGO and her casino trips. Every where Lorene went, no one was ever a stranger with her. She was always willing to help anyone. Everyone, whether family or friend, loved to talk with her and receive sound advice. She was a jewel and will be greatly missed. 

Lorene was preceded in death by one son; husband of 56 years; daughter; parents; two brothers and three sisters.

She leaves in the care of the Lord her loving daughter, Aisha Bailey; grandsons, Eric (Jennifer) and Keon (Ashley) Clayton; sisters, Virginia (Elijah) Pointer of Fayetteville, NC, Mary Heard and Pauline Kimble, both of Joliet, IL; bestfriend of 60 years, Katie Graves of Joliet, IL; seven great-grandchildren; a host of nieces and nephews, cousins and friends.
