Clayton Patrick Anderson, 27, passed away Thursday December 21, 2023 at Indiana University Hospital in Indianapolis following a reoccurring illness.
Clay was always ready to sacrifice for family and friends. He was a giver to the end, as an organ donor, he was able to save another life through his donation.
Clay was an intellect, a deep thinker, and a listener second to none. He had a superb ability to retain facts and information of all kinds, especially sports trivia. His ability to retain information, paired with his sense of humor, made for a great debate.
In his spare time he enjoyed traveling, hiking outdoors, frisbee golf, reading, research, poetry, and video gaming. He was an avid Indiana Pacers fan.
Clay was born October 15, 1996 in Noblesville, IN, He grew up in the Sheridan Wesleyan Church, graduated from Sheridan High School in 2015, attended Hanover College, and received a degree in Sociology from IU Kokomo in 2020.
