Anyone who goes to conventions, especially on the East Coast knows the "sweater zombie" from Dawn Of The Dead; Clayton Hill. The way I hear it, he passed last night from pneumonia, after suffering a stroke. He was a wonderful guy and a real pleasure to be around. I met him at last year's ScreamFest and he was terrific.
Sad News :(
Ah, Sweater Zombie! Sorry to hear it... thanks for the notice.
This time stay at peace, will ya Clayton?

I was lucky enough to meet Clayton in 2006. Extremely nice man, he will be missed. :-[ RIP

Ouch! I'd not heard this. Clayton and I were friends and he gave me an awesome interview for Scary Monsters (he lives only a few hours away from me). He was a wonderful man, He did a lot for us as Monster Kids and a lot for us as a patriot of our country. He was a wonderful man. I have to go and shed some tears.
Farewell Clayton, thank you for the Monster Memories.
An extremely nice man. He and Sharon embraced their celebrity status and were great fun to talk to. I had a table opposite them at at least two conventions, and was always happy to see them there. I do hope Sharon is holding up okay. Johnny Scareshock, if you have a P.O. for them, send me a private message with it.

Dear UMA FANG-MILY,
... CLAYTON and SHARON were a most Blessed Couple.
... Their Love, always, shone, forth, effortlessly.

... I, too, enjoyed the undiminished pleasure, of sharing, in several Conventions, with them.
... CLAYTON, may GOD Grant, to You, HIS EVERNOW PEACE, LIGHT, LIFE, and JOY!
... SHARON, May you be cradled, in, and saturated, by, THE EVERNOW LOVE DIVINE.

EXANIMO EVERNOW,
TIMMY & THE BARON & BARONESS & FRIENDS, GOO-O-OODD-D!, B.G.G.
Ah...I never met him in person, but I loved his performance as the most "confused" zombie. He always seemed to get laughs during theatre screenings. To hear he was a great person too is no surprise. RIP Clayton.
So sorry to hear this, and especially so for his friends at the UMA. God's peace and comfort to all.
