Grace, mercy and peace be multiplied unto you through your knowledge of God our Father Almighty and the Lord Jesus Christ. My family and I commiserate with you and the entire Sonmore family on the passing on to eternal glory of your father and a father also to many of us. I had the blessing of being in fellowship once in Owerre when he visited Nigeria in the late 80s. The brief 'contact" set a fire in my spirit regarding the realm 'Beyond Pentecost'. He is not dead but sleepeth and his works do follow him. I bless the Lord as do millions all over the earth that were touched by his life and times. In times like this, we ask the Lord to comfort you and the entire family in a way that He alone is capable of doing and continue to work in you all that is wellpleasing in His sight to the glory of His name. The grace of the LORD Jesus Christ be with your spirit, beloved brother. Shalom.

Gary,
Please know that I am willing and desirous to be with you and your family at this time. Your dad was a very special friend to me. His life and commitment to the Lord's purpose has continued to inspire my life and press me on in Christ.
I pray the Lord's richest blessings on you and your family at this time. My friend is at peace.
In Christ, Jerry Gadwa
Bro. Clayt was one of a kind—a pioneer and gentle giant in the Faith; a close friend of Jesus; a true friend to us and many.
His clear voice of wisdom and love of fellowship is very special. Our thoughts and prayers will be with you and the Family.
We were looking forward to visit next trip to Denver when we come to see our son, which has been a while. We'll have
to wait now till we too cross the vale. His eyes were always heavenward, now he has arrived.
Had just recently talked to Bro. Albert about his time in ministering to Pam in Oregon and his time with Clayt in Cuba.
Sending our love and thoughts,
Bill and Maryann

Dear Brother Gary,
We received with mixed feelings early hours of this morning the passage of our great friend, dear brother, fellow soldier, and father in the Lord Brother Clayton Sonmore.
Mixed feelings because we rejoice that a great soldier of the cross and a great General finished well. He fought a good fight, ran a great race, and kept the faith.
Brother Clayt stood out in this generation as a gallant and fiery prophet. He declared the truth of God's word no matter who's ox is gored.
We will miss brother Sonmore. We are deeply pained by his absence in the flesh at a time when the true word and the true prophets of the Lord are scarce in the land. We are consoled however by the great legacies he left behind. The great and unadulterated truths he penciled in the books he wrote will continue to ring forth in the church for many generations to come. What a rare prophet he was.
We, in Nigeria will never forget his visit to Nigeria many years back. His book "Show the House to the House" among many others sparked such huge fires in our hearts that snowballed across the country and is still burning till date.
Brother Clayt lived with, and carried a heavy burden for the restoration of the church. He was an embodiment of humility, and many times he ministered with great agony and tears as he brought forth the word of the Lord for the church.
We salute this great prophet of our time. May God in his infinite mercies raise for us many more Sonmores in this midnight hour to sound the alarm and to blow the trumpet.
We commiserate with the Sonmore family particularly our brother Gary. We thank God that God gave us Clayton Sonmore through your family.
We will continue to draw strength from the legacies of this great prophet until we see him again on the resurrection Morning.

Dear Brother,
We rejoice in your father's life well lived, and know that he is truly in glory now.
May the God of all comfort be with you and your family, and may the Joy of the Lord be your strength.

Sorry to hear about your Father, but I rejoice in His promotion.
I have very fond memories about your dad.
Thank you for letting me know.
Sincerely,
Gary Palermo
We blessed God for the home coming of your dad who have joined the Great cloud of witnesses.
Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints. Psalm 116.15.
May our good Lord comfort you and your extended family in Jesus Name.
Bless you my brother.

I praise God for the opportunity to meet Bro. Clayt, a wonderful servant of God in 1990, when he came to Nigeria along with Bro. Cecil Ducille of blessed memory.
The testimonies he shared with us at the meeting and his passion to see the restoration of God's order in the Church of Jesus Christ were good drives for us.
I have also been blessed by his numerous writings. I just gave a copy of his book: BEYOND PENTECOST to a Pastor in The Gambia, a few days ago. Yesterday, my wife and i were discussing about Bro.Clayt with the same Pastor in The Gambia, just about the time Bro. Clayt was being called home to be with his Lord!
I believe he fought a good fight, kept the faith and also won the race.
May God be with you and the entire family at this time.
SHALOM,

Love and blessings from Melissa and I. We miss you and your family.
