Clay was born in Wichita, Kansas, and made his home in Haysville, Kansas, where spent much of his life building not only a career, but meaningful memories with those he loved. He worked for many years in the family business, Loper Drywall, alongside his father. Clay took great pride in his work, finding deep satisfaction in the finished result and treating his craft not just as a job, but as an art. His dedication and strong work ethic were a true reflection of who he was.

Clay loved the simple freedoms of life. He found peace at the lake, enjoyed camping and fishing, and cherished time spent outdoors. One of his greatest joys was riding his Harley-Davidson, embracing the open road and living life on his own terms. He had a free spirit and always tried to make the best of life in the ways he knew how.

Clay was preceded in death by his parents, Joyce and Marvin Loper, and his brothers, Bruce Loper and Mark Loper.

Clay will be remembered for his hardworking nature, his free spirit, and the pride he took in both his work and his family. He will be deeply missed and forever remembered by all who knew and loved him.
