As you watch the slide show, you will see how Clay's appearance changed while he was on American Idol, but his morals are still the same.

How I learned of this kind and caring young man!

One day I heard my grandson and his friends talking about a "guy" from Raleigh who might win and was very good. I asked them what sport they were talking about. They (all at once) began talking about 'American Idol'. I had never heard of this show. I decided this must be a kid's show. Soon, this "Kid" was on every news program I watched! Wow! When I heard him sing, I decided to watch the show, American Idol. I didn't even know when it aired until the reporter gave the day and time. I saw and heard an incredible young man and began to watch interviews and learned so much. I would be very happy if he was my son. Not just because of his talent, but because of his values. He works with 'Special Needs' children and is totally untouched by the publicity. He is "Real". He loves God, family, and life! Clay seems to touch the hearts of every person who hears him, no matter what their age. My dear friend, Deb (Dreamwork Designs) lives in Canada, and it appears he is popular there, also. Clay is our Home-Town hero--but he was a hero to these 'Special Needs' kids long before his fame. Thank you Christopher (my grandson) for introducing me to Clay. Thanks Clay!

Love's Special Song Dedicated to Clay Aiken Stage of life has now been set His voice we all have heard Talent pours forth from his soul Life's miracle occurred For he can keep an audience In silent peaceful calm As he sings a special song With love that will go on We close our eyes and hear the voice That takes our breath away Such glory in his greatest gift That comes to us each day We know in life he will go far For he knows how to love Blessing that he has received Will come from up above So on this day and beyond We offer a sweet prayer Bless Oh Lord this voice of gold With heart of love he shares. ~ Francine Pucillo ~ Copyright September 21, 2003 Francine's Poetry Emotion
