When Bob Clay took to the podium at the derby awards ceremony, and the hard-earned, well-deserved chance for a brand new Clay Motors pickup truck, the irony of the moment was not lost. Just what I need, he joked. Then, true to his character, the moment became about Habitat for Humanity of Martha’s Vineyard. If he did indeed possess the winning key, the truck would be given to Habitat. Bob and Fran Clay have long been supporters and donors to affordable housing on Martha’s Vineyard. I wish to express on behalf of the entire Habitat for Humanity MV family, our heartfelt gratitude. The Island is fortunate to have you and your commitment to community. Thank you again for your shining example and unwavering support.
