  • Notes 
    • Clayton P. Robertson. The Heavenly Choir has a new bass singer today! Clayton is home with the Lord. He was born April 12, 1911, on a farm near Mediapolis, Iowa, to the late John and Lena Mabel Robertson — the 7th of 10 children. He died March 2, 2004, in McAllen.

      He was active in the church choir of St. Mark United Methodist Church in McAllen, Texas, for 34 years. He was also a founding member of the barber shop harmony group known as the Magic Valley Men of A Chord, and sang with them for about 15 years. Clayton's greatest delight was as a volunteer librarian at Taylor Christian School where he would read to the children during the library hour.

      Mr. Robertson is survived by his son, Dwight Robertson; daughter-in-law, Becky Cantu Robertson, both of McAllen; two daughters, Linda J. Robertson of Alameda, Calif. and Carol Green; son-in-law, Douglas Green, both of Fairfax, Va.; three granddaughters, Amy Pettus of San Jose, Calif., Lisa (Bill) McCrory of Coeuer D`Alene, Idaho and Erin Robertson of Bloomington, Ill.; three grandsons, Jason (Michelle) Green, Jeremy Green both of Fairfax, Va., and Steve Robertson of Los Angeles, Calif.

      The funeral service will be at 2 p.m. Friday, March 5, 2004, at St. Mark United Methodist Church, 301 W. Pecan Avenue, McAllen, Texas. Burial will follow at Valley Memorial Gardens Cemetery in McAllen.

      The family asks that memorial donations be made to Taylor Christian School, 2021 West Jackson Avenue, McAllen, Texas 78501. Kreidler Funeral Home is in charge of the arrangements.
