Bryce J. Clement, age 23 of Rochester died unexpectedly at his home on Monday, June 13, 2016.

Bryce was born on April 26, 1993 to Linda (Clement) Bray. He lived in the Preston area until age 13, when he moved to Lake City. He graduated from Lake City High School in 2011. He then moved to Rochester.

Bryce had a kind heart and was full of passion and love for those around him, but he struggled with his own demons of depression, which eventually took his life. His laugh was infectious, and he was always ready to give out giant hugs.

Bryce loved hanging out with friends, being a complete goof-ball, playing trumpet and guitar, and most of all spending time with the sweetest little girl, Sophie, who calls him daddy.

Bryce is survived by his mother and step-father Linda and Don Bray of Chatfield, his brother Draven House of Rochester, his sweet little girl Sophie, his step-siblings Megan (Adam) Ross of Troy, NY, Patrick (Brittney) Bray of Suamico, WI, Phillip Bray of Princeton, MN, and Mikaela Bray of Chatfield, his grandparents Michael and Joan Clement of Chatfield, and "Grandma" Ruth Olson of Lanesboro, along with many aunts, uncles and cousins.

He was preceded in death by his great-grandparents and his beloved uncle Jerry Carter.

A Funeral Service for Bryce will be held at 11:00AM on Friday, June 17, 2016 in the River Park Chapel at Macken Funeral Home with Pastor Aaron Wager officiating. Visitation will be held from 5:00pm until 8:00pm on Thursday, June 16, 2016 in the River Park Chapel at Macken Funeral Home along with one hour prior to the service.
