On Wednesday, January 1 at 2:04 a.m., parents Loretta Shaughnessy and Ryan Heise welcomed their baby boy Maverick Raymond Heise into the world.
Baby Maverick was safely delivered at PRHC in the early hours of New Year’s Day, weighing 6 lbs. 13 oz. Mom and baby are doing well, and the parents are thrilled with the newest addition to their family. Maverick’s big sister Florence is looking forward to meeting him.
“We can’t say enough about the incredible care we received from the nurses and doctors here,” said Loretta about delivering Maverick at PRHC. Her sister — a Labour and Delivery nurse at PRHC — was off-duty and able to attend during the birth as a support person.
Maverick takes his middle name, Raymond, from Loretta’s grandfather, Ray Lowery, who passed away shortly after the couple found out they were expecting.
