In his caption on the post, Beathard bared a large part of his heart, writing: "It's hard to even know where to start for something like this, but I guess first I just want to say a can't tell you how thankful and blessed me and my family are for all of the people that have reached out and prayers we have received since by brother went to heaven.

"It truly is unbelievable all of the support and friends we have. I love each every one of you. Thank y'all so much," he continued. "But I want to start with Clay. Clay has the biggest heart of anyone that I have ever known. Anyone that knows him knows this, he would do absolutely anything for the people he loves.

"He is the most loyal guy that I have ever known in my life and has always been so dang proud of my family and I," Beathard went on to say. "It sounds so cliche but clay is the best example of a dude that lights up every room he walks into whether its with his loud contagious laugh or just the smile on his face. Anyone that knows him would tell you the same.

"He also has the weirdest ways of making unforgettable relationships with literally everyone he meets," he also shared. "Clay is the sweetest, most humble, toughest, and kind hearted people this world had in it, but he was called home and now has none of the pains and stresses only this world could give. Clay is 1 of a kind."

Beathard concluded his message in the comments, revealing that Clayton's funeral will be held at Grace Chapel Church in Franklin Tennessee on Saturday, Dec. 28.

The man accused of fatally stabbing Clayton was taken into custody by police earlier this week.
