Claude ‘’Toady’’ Mattison, Jr.’s Story: His journey began on March 27, 1945 to the late Mr. Claude, Sr. and Mrs. Margaree Carter Mattison. Toady took flight to be with the Lord on Tuesday, February 15, 2022 at his home. Toady attended Westside High School during his school years where he played baseball. He loved watching the LA Dodgers play. He also enjoyed watching the San Francisco 49ers and Clemson Tigers football. He enjoyed traveling and driving trucks. Toady worked for many years driving trucks until his retirement from Republica Waste Management years ago. Toady will always be remembered for being very real and very outspoken; also teasing everyone that he came into contact with. He enjoyed spending time with his family and friends.
