of Maumelle, AR

March 12, 1951 - December 21, 2023

Clyde (Tommy) Thomas May, Jr. of Maumelle passed away on December 21, 2023. Our dear Tommy was born with a smile on March 12, 1951 to Clyde Sr. and Barnie Lou May (Adams). He spent his childhood in Memphis, Tennessee with his sisters, Luanne Cox and Mary Jane May-Dacus, fostering a love of sport and community. His passion for athletics brought him to Arkansas to play football at Henderson State University and this passion thrived throughout his life with his love of golf and the Razorbacks. His love of community shone at every stage of his life: as an Eagle Scout, in his dedication to his many lifelong friends and in his desire to improve the world around him, fostering the earth God gave him.

He loved to travel but was never happier than when he was at home with his beloved wife of 40 years, Rose; his daughters, Traci Pinner, Shelly Armstrong and Sara Elder and his grandchildren, Kaylee Cannon, Drew Pinner, Jillian Armstrong, Ryan Armstrong and Bryley Elder and great grandson, Wade Cannon. But it was his love and devotion to God that drove Tommy through trial and tribulation, victory and defeat. He was an active and loved member of New Life Church, Greater Little Rock campus. In all things, it was love that drove Tommy-love for God, for his family, for his friends and neighbors. With his infectious smile, he knew no stranger, he loved fiercely and today he is with his mother, father and a host of angels in Heaven.

Join us in celebrating the life of this generous, cheerful and wonderful man on Tuesday, December 26, 2023. Visitation will be held at 1pm and funeral services at 2pm at Roller-Drummond Funeral Home on 10900 Interstate 30 in Little Rock. He will be laid to rest at Riverwood Memorial Gardens in Maumelle following his service.
