Lauren VanDeventer

Lauren VanDeventer, 20, of Westfield, passed away Thursday evening, March 16, 2017. She was born on April 2, 1996 to Keith and Lisa (Witt) VanDeventer in Indianapolis. Her father precedes her in death. She attended Westfield High School through her senior year and graduated from Options Charter High School in Carmel.
Lauren had a strong love for animals. She became a vegetarian at the age of 6 and had many pets throughout her childhood. Lauren could light up any room she walked in. She was fun-loving and had a contagious smile and laugh. She could also be very head-strong at times. She loved the band, Panic! At the Disco, and would have said that she was their biggest fan.
In addition to her mother, Lauren is survived by her sister, Karla (Alex) Gilbert; brother, Dorian VanDeventer and his fiancée, Christina Fowler; grandparents, Ron and Pat Witt; and several aunts, uncles, and cousins.
Services will be held on Wednesday, March 22, 2017 at 6:00 PM at Randall and Roberts Fishers Mortuary, 12010 Allisonville Rd. Visitation will begin at 4:00 PM until the time of service.
