Obituary
Maggie Anita Clayton, 70, of Cincinnati, passed away peacefully on June 22, 2025, after a courageous battle with urachal cancer.
Born in Tuskegee, Alabama, Anita was a gifted architect and devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and woman of faith. She earned both her bachelor's and master's degrees in architecture from Tuskegee Institute, where she met and married Gregory Clayton. Her career included work with the National Park Service, contributing to the restoration of
historical landmarks, and later entrepreneurial ventures as a McDonald's franchisee.
A lifelong member of the church, Anita served actively in various congregations in Denver, St. Louis, and Cincinnati, where she also used her talents in service and ministry. She was a proud member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., and a lover of Corgis and music.
She is survived by her husband Gregory; son Camara Clayton; brother Lloyd Andre Walls; grandchildren Arianna Williams and David G. Clayton; and many other loving family members.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to cancer research or Corgi rescue organizations.
