Funeral services were Tuesday, May 11, 2010 at Grace Bible Church, Highmore with Pastor Sheena Thomson officiating. Burial followed in the Highmore Cemetery.
Clayton was born on January 27, 1935 at Tulare, South Dakota to Clarence and Lillie (Miller) Alfson. In 1957, he moved to Highmore, where he married Rose Mary McWeeny in June of 1959.
Following a short time of employment with Wilbur Goldsmith, Clayton worked for Dick Straight for ten years. His love for cars then compelled him to open his own garage, which he owned and operated until his death. During that time for one year, he worked for Red Garrigan.
Clayton is survived by his wife, Rose Mary of Highmore, SD; son, Rick (Stacey) Alfson of Canton, SD; three grandchildren: Anika, Carrington and Emmerson; three sister-in-laws: Agnes (Roy) Johnson of Arizona, Dorothy (Lowell) Broberg of Washington, and Betty Schillinger of Highmore, SD; three brother-in-laws: Ted Champlin of Oklahoma, Gene McWeeny of Hot Springs, SD and Elbert (Jean) McWeeny of Mississippi; and several nieces, nephews and cousins.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Clarence and Lillie Alfson and sister, Lila Champlin, and granddaughter, Kennedy Alfson.
