Clayton Oothoudt III, age 51, of Onigum, Minnesota began his journey to the spirit world on Tuesday, June 23rd, 2020 from his home with his family by his side.

Clayton was born on November 29th, 1968 in Cass Lake, MN, the son of Anna (Tiokasin) Sheffield and Clayton Oothoudt, Jr.  He attended school in Riverside, California for a brief time during his younger years.  Clayton really enjoyed traveling and visiting with his family and friends.  His enjoyment of all genres of music was unique.  Clayton was a motorhead that loved working on cars, getting greasy, riding dirt bikes and building motorbikes for his kids.  If you knew Clayton, you knew that he had a rude and crude sense of humor and that he loved making people laugh.  We will miss him!!!
