Lauren Elizabeth Sullivan, 24, of Grain Valley, Missouri, passed away on January 30th, 2024 at St. Luke’s Hospital in Lee’s Summit, Missouri. Lauren was born on September 28th, 1999 to Jennifer and Michael Sullivan. Lauren attended school in Grain Valley, Missouri, graduating in 2019.
Lauren was preceded in death by her grandfather, Edward Sullivan.
Lauren is survived by her parents Jennifer & Dan Cassidy and Mike & Chrissy Sullivan; two brothers, Stephen Sullivan and Brady Fern; grandparents Donnie Sullivan, Frank & Debbie Mance, Jim & Theresa Cassidy, Jim & Mary Fern and Sheryl Sullivan; and many aunts, uncles and cousins.
During her short life, Lauren touched many people with her love and humor. Throughout her life she spent an unfair amount of time in the hospital, but she rocked her extra chromosome like a warrior. She loved Christmas and Halloween, watching her movies, and being outside. She loved playing with her stuffed animals and babies. Lauren loved all of her dogs, and they all loved her.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks for donations to be made to Children’s Mercy Hospital in Kansas City, Missouri.
Visitation will be held Monday, February 5th from 6-8 pm at McGilley Stateline Chapel, with a Celebration of Life at 7pm
