Clayton Zukovsky

Clayton “Clayt” Zukovsky, age 93, of Sterling, New York passed away on July 15, 2026, surrounded by his family.

Clayt was born on May 2, 1933, to his parents William and Mildred Zukovsky in Bethlehem, PA. He lived there in his early childhood and then moved to New York with his parents. There he met and married his wife of 63 years, Beverly “Jean”, and had four children – John Micheal, David Clifford, Terry Lynn, and Shari Lee. Clayt worked at and retired from the Sealright Plant in Fulton, New York, where he worked his way up the ladder from an entry level position to plant manager. He also started a Christmas tree farm with his wife and children, called Tri Star Tree Farm, in Sterling, New York, which was very popular with the locals in the Central New York region. Clayt was also an avid hunter and fisherman and enjoyed spending his time outside on the farm.

Sadly, Clayton was preceded by his son John and his wife Jean, but is survived by his two sons, David and Terry, and his daughter, Shari, as well as several grandchildren, great grandchildren, and great, great grandchildren.

Clayton will be fondly remembered and GREATLY MISSED.
