Aubrey Blake Clements, accusedof impaired driving in crash that killed Liz Hawley, dies at age 32

Aubrey Blake Clements, the man charged in a head-on collision that killed Niagara-on-the-Lake resident Liz Hawley on July 29, has died.

An online obituary page for Clements said he died suddenly Nov. 30. It notes he was a father of three children with his partner of 10 years, Rebecca Robins.

Clements' sister Megan Ruiter said in a Facebook comment that her brother was “good, kind and loved.”

A 32-year-old NOTL resident, Clements had been charged with dangerous driving causing death, impaired driving causing death (by drugs, suspected fentanyl) and possession of a drug suspected to be fentanyl.

At the time of the crash, Niagara Regional Police said Clements lost control of his Chevrolet Caprice northbound on Niagara Stone Road near Eastchester Avenue and veered into Hawley's lane, striking her Porsche head-on.

Clements was free on bail and had been ordered by the court to live with his sureties, his parents Linda Clements and Aubrey Clements Sr., at their home in Niagara-on-the-Lake.
