Clementine Karis Palattao

August 26, 2022 - January 22, 2023

Nestled in the heart of Kansas City, the most precious little daughter in

the world was born: Clementine Karis Palattao. She arrived on October 26,

2022, welcomed into the world by her loving parents in a peaceful,

beautiful labor that took place in the comfort of their home. She barely

cried, so eager was she to finally meet her parents and embark on the

adventure of life. From the moment she opened her eyes, Clementine was a

beacon of light and love and hope.

For her first two weeks, Clementine spent every moment snuggled up against

her mama and dad, basking in the warmth and love of her new family. In her

few short months of life, she accomplished more than most adults do in a

lifetime. She traveled to several states across the US, visited two

different countries, and even took six flights! Everywhere she went, people

were drawn to her and eager to hold her and snuggle her.

She was a lover of books, especially her Bible, and loved to be read to and

to look at the pictures. Clementine had a special love for the color

yellow, just like her mama, and would calm down instantly whenever she saw

the yellow page in her colors book. Her father would sing to her and she

was learning to sing along. Her smile was getting bigger and bigger each

moment. Clementine was content with nothing more than to be held and drink

milk all day.

Clementine's life was a testament to the goodness of God in every way. Her

calling could be best defined as professional friend maker. Everyone loved

her everywhere she went and wanted to be her friend. She was a friend of

Jesus Christ. In her final moments, she knew only love and comfort. Though

her time on earth was brief, she made a lasting impact in this world. As we

celebrate her life, let us hold onto the hope and joy she brought into all

of our lives, looking forward to the day where we can see her again.
