    Layton passed away with significant medical, funeral, and other expenses. Friends of Layton's have set up a website for donations in Layton's memory to help Layton's wife, Karen Kor, with those expenses.

    The website address is: www.youcaring.com/laytonkor.

    All donations go straight to Karen with no intermediaries and no fees. Please give generously and spread the word!
