Nevaeh Lenee Oothoudt was born June 15, 2001, in Deer River, Minnesota.
She was a Leech Lake Ojibwe Tribal Band member and also a Robinson Rancheria Band of Pomo Indians descendant.
Navaeh planned on making California her new home and wanted to start a new life before her untimely passing.
Navaeh will be greatly missed by many friends and family members from Minnesota and California.
Like a shooting star that lights up the night sky, Nevaeh could make anyone smile or laugh and was the sweetest person you could ever meet.
She is survived by her mother, Lisa Peake; sisters, Cherice Williams, Charissa and Le Ann Oothoudt; and brothers, Cory, Joseph, Chauncey and Jamie Oothoudt.
She was preceded in death by her grandparents, Evelyn and Joseph Peake; father, Clayton Oothoudt III; and brother, Clayton IV.
Nevaeh's California family will be holding a private viewing at the Chapel of the Lakes Mortuary, 1625 N. High St., in Lakeport, on Tuesday, Oct. 19, from 3 to 7 p.m.
She will then make her journey home to Minnesota to be laid to rest in Onigum and say final goodbyes with family and friends.
