Lydia Clay

Lydia Elaine Clay came into this world as the best surprise ever on February 9, 2024 and passed away on April 19, 2024. She was a strong little girl who fought for one month in the NICU getting to come home on her one-month milestone. Lydia was able to be a part of the KC Chiefs Super Bowl win, go to the aquarium, attend a KC Royals game win and see an eclipse. She also got to celebrate Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day and Easter with her family. In Lydia’s short life, she had a huge impact on all those around her and will forever be in our hearts. 

 Lydia is survived by her parents Liliana Callahan and Lucas Clay; her maternal grandparents Susan “Mema” and Edward “Pawpaw” Doyle; her paternal grandmother Julie Clay; great-grandparents Leslie “Gigi Pa” and Shirley “Gigi Ma” Callahan; aunt and uncle Emily and Arin O’Connor; uncle Joe Callahan; great- uncle Stuart Callahan; cousins Kian and Evelyn O’Connor; and her dog Samson.

Celebration of Life will be held at 1:00 p.m. Sunday, April 28th at the Senior Center in Smithville
