On October 1st, 2024, we said farewell to Clarence L Barnes lll. Clarence was born on September 15, 1992, in Baltimore, Maryland to Andrea Young and Clarence L Barnes Jr. He brought laughter and joy wherever he went.

Clarence, lovingly known as "LeeLee" to his friends and family, had a larger-than-life personality that could light up any room. He inherited his charm and wit from his father and his kindness and compassion from his mother.

Clarence had a rocky start to life but became a walking miracle. He tried to walk an honest and true path but ultimately became plagued with mental issues. He struggled day in and day out while still showing a smile on his face until he couldn't anymore. He succumbed to his "demons" as he would call them.

Clarence began his education at "Halstead Academy" on Halstead Rd in Parkville, Maryland. He attended and graduated from Parkville High School in 2011. During this time, Clarence acquired a love of the afterlife. He had an altar dedicated to Santa Muerte. He wanted to be a mortician.

While we mourn the loss of Clarence, let's remember the countless memories and laughs he shared with us. His spirit will live on in the hearts of all who knew him. Clarence leaves behind his pride and joy, his son Braxton, mother Andrea, sisters Kyra and Mikel, as well as several nephews and nieces.
