September 19, 1985 - October 16,2024
We are so deeply saddened to announce the passing of our beloved Clayton Thomas Oakley.
Clayton was a passionate fan of the Montreal Canadiens, often sharing his excitement for the game with friends and family. He cherished the moments spent casting a line with his brother, Garnet, enjoying the peace of nature and the joy of brotherhood. His smile was genuine and contagious. He played hockey for many of his younger years and in adulthood he was a fitness enthusiast frequenting the gym, boxing, martial arts and walking. He enjoyed poetry in his younger years and even won a national poetry competition.
His absence will leave an undeniable mark on our lives, as he was not just a family member and friend, but a source of light and laughter. Clayton’s legacy of kindness and compassion will forever be cherished by all who had the privilege of knowing him. His spirit and warmth touched the lives of many, leaving an incredible mark on our hearts. Clayton will be so sadly missed by many family members and friends.
A Celebration of Life for Clayton will be held at the Gilbert MacIntyre & Son Funeral Home, Hart Chapel 1099 Gordon St. Guelph on Sunday, November 24, 2024 from 1-4 p.m.
