Jesse Clay Mynear, 80, husband of Shirley Bussell Mynear, went to be with his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ after a long and blessed life on Sunday, November 2, 2014.

He was born in Nicholas County on January 10, 1934 to the late Manda Earlywine Mynear Roberts & John Henry Mynear. A lifelong resident of Nicholas County, he served Nicholas and surrounding counties for 50 years as owner and operator of Mynear & Sons Plumbing, Heating and Air Conditioning and served honorably in the Kentucky Army National Guard for 17 years. He was a loving and devoted husband, father and grandfather.

Clay was Elder Emeritus at the Carlisle Christian Church, where he served as Board Chairman for 18 years. He loved the Lord, his church and his church family very much. His hobbies were farming and spending time with his family.

In addition to his wife of 59 years, Shirley, he is survived by four children: Sharon (Doug) Vaughn, of Paris, Rita (Phillip) Mattox, Steve (Michele) Mynear and Johnny (Patty) Mynear, all of Carlisle, and a brother, Jay Mynear, of Little Rock. He was blessed with eight grandchildren: Brandon Mattox, Jessica Vaughn, Joshua Mynear, Jordan Mynear, Justin Vaughn, Aaron Pope, Shane Mattox and Mikayla Mynear, as well as a great-granddaughter, Claycee Mitchell, who will be born in March and a special friend, Kara Sexton.

He was also outstripped in the race of life by two brothers, Irvin & Woodie Mynear, and two sisters, Geneva Darnell and Julia Craycraft.
