Michael Clemmons

Waynesboro, GA – Entered into rest on Sunday, August 3, 2025, Larry Michael Clemmons, 66, loving husband of Pam Clemmons.

Michael Clemmons was a devoted husband, loving father, and a master craftsman in the world of high-performance outboard motors. He was a proud and active member of the community. As the founder of Outback Outboards, his unmatched skill in building and customizing racing boat engines earned him deep respect and lasting friendships across his field. His love for cooking was first inspired by his mother and later refined under the influence of the famous Emeril Lagasse, adding another layer of creativity to his life. Whether working in his shop, in the kitchen, or out on the water, Michael’s quiet strength and generous spirit were evident to all who knew him. Rarely seen without his loyal chocolate Labradors, Ellie and Josie, by his side, he found joy in life’s simple pleasures. Michael faced his final days with the same courage and resilience that defined his life, leaving his family forever grateful for his unwavering strength.

In addition to his wife of 41 years, Pam, Michael is survived by his daughter: Allie Clemmons; mother: Ann Clemmons; sister: Natalie Colbert; niece: Chaé Colbert; and nephew: Gabe Colbert.

The family will receive friends one hour prior to the service followed by a celebration of Michael’s life on Saturday, August 23, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. at the Chapel of Thomas Poteet and Son Funeral Directors.
