Jayda was born on October 11, 2007 to Jesse Clark, Jr. and Meca Clegg in Chicago, Illinois. Jayda was a loving daughter, granddaughter, great granddaughter, sister, niece, cousin and friend. Though she had many health struggles, she could always be found with a smile on her face. She was a fighter. Jayda was a third grader at Discovery Community Elementary School in Waite Park. She loved going to school to see her friends and teachers. Along with going to school, Jayda loved to listen to music, especially her Toddler Tunes and her big brother’s music. She also enjoyed playing with her light up toys, going shopping, swimming and spending time with her friends. She was greatly loved and will be deeply missed by all who knew her. She will be especially missed by her long time Personal Care Assistants, Carla Brundell and Sandie Kalla; with whom Jayda was very attached to and loved spending time with.

She is survived by her parents, Jesse Clark, Jr. and Meca Clegg; brothers, Jordan Clegg and Jayden Clark; maternal grandmother, Joyce Clegg; maternal step-grandfather, John Eaves; paternal grandparents, Jesse Brown, Sr. and Lucy Clark; maternal great-grandfather, John D. Clegg; Personal Care Assistants, Carla Brundell and Sandie (Dave) Kalla; and many aunts, uncles, cousins, other relatives and friends.

She is preceded in death by her maternal great-grandmother, Anna “Sweet Pea” Clegg; paternal great-grandma, Corrine Clark and aunt, Betty Clark.

A special thank you to Carla Brundell and Sandie Kalla for their many years of dedicated service and love to Jayda.
