Leonidas

Clark

Infant Leonidas Clark was born November 17, 2017 at 2:12 PM the son of Zachary and Desiree (McMillan) Clark who survive.

He came to us 4 weeks before he was due. After an emergency C-Section, our little boy was born without a heartbeat and he wasn't breathing.  A team of hospital staff worked for 50 minutes, while on the phone with the NICU, trying to revive him.  They continued working even after the point he would have been considered brain dead, upon revival.

We've chosen to believe that God kept him because he is simply too perfect for Earth.

Leo weighed 5 pounds 7 ounces. He was 19 inches long.  His head was 13 ¼ inches around.  His torso was 12 inches.  He had beautiful curly red hair and blue eyes (like his dad).

Leo was physically perfect. We've never seen anyone more beautiful.

He is also survived by his grandparents, Greg and Pamela Clark, Dawn and Charles Mitchell; great grandparents, Sid and Mary McMillan, Terry and Diana, Clark, Dennis and Sue Stempfly, Lorella Laughton; aunts and uncles, Mack and Lyndsey Clark, Nick Skotynsky and Kristen Morrow, Victoria Mitchell and Michael Mitchell.

He is also preceded in death by his grandfather, Cory McMillan; and great grandmother, Dianne Lucas.

Private family services will be conducted Saturday, November 25, 2017. To honor Zachary and Desiree's wishes, please refrain from bringing children and infants.  Thank you.

In lieu of flowers, donations are suggested to the family
