Tristan James Clay
July 26, 1997 - July 26, 2018
Tristan James Clay, 21, of South Boardman, passed away unexpectedly on July 26, 2018. He was born on July 26, 1997 in Traverse City to Billie Jo Tracey and James Clay. Tristan truly lived life to the fullest. Everyday was a new day for him to see and do all that the world had to offer or what he could offer it. His heart was big and full of love for everyone that crossed his path. He loved to go hunting, cook, and being creative making tools and knives, and most of all fishing, fishing, and more fishing. He had an infectious smile and loved to make people laugh. His sense of humor and his big heart were by far his two greatest qualities. Tristan will be dearly missed by his friends, family, and all of those who were privileged enough to meet him. Tristan is survived by those who raised him; Billie Jo Tracey, James (Kristy) Clay, and Dan Briggs; his siblings, Karli (Jamie Morrison) Hauser, Kaleb Hauser, Willard Clay, and Lexis Clay; many aunts and uncles; cousins; and grandparents.
