Luke and Leia Lamke

We are heartbroken to share that we are no longer expecting the birth of our twins. Luke Liam James Lamke and Leia Lauren Jane Lamke were born sleeping in September 2022 at home in Minnetonka, Minnesota.  

Luke and Leia are survived by their beloved parents Darik and Megan Lamke, big sister Lyra Joy Lamke, and giant extended family and friends who are like family.  

There to welcome Luke and Leia home in eternal peace was their “Grandma Becky” Rebecca Joy (Reese) Zweber, and their beloved siblings Joy Marie Reese Lamke, Daniel Liam Ray Lamke, David Liam Rae Lamke, and Alya Joy Reese Lamke, along with numerous family and friends who call Heaven home. 

Our lives were touched by the joy-filled surprise that we got to know them at all. Please keep our family in your thoughts and prayers as we prepare for their funeral, burial and coming to terms with our lives here without them. We are choosing to ride the waves of grief with the hope that is found in Jesus Christ.  

There will be a private funeral service for immediate family at Holy Name of Jesus Church: 155 County Road 24, Wayzata, MN 55391. Interment Holy Name of Jesus Cemetery.  

Please do not send flowers, because flowers at funerals are triggering for our family. In lieu of flowers, a memorial trust has been created at Tradition Capital Bank which will be used to support nonprofit organizations that help grieving families in Minnesota and provide traumatic-informed care for children and their families, especially in underserved communities.

May the road rise to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face. And rains fall soft upon your fields. May every rainbow end with a pot of gold…And until we meet again - Joy, David, Daniel, Alya, Luke, and Leia - May God hold you in the hollow of His hand.
