In Loving Memory

Neriah Marie Sullivan
December 17, 2001 — August 19, 2026
In loving memory of Neriah Marie Sullivan, who graced this world with her presence on December 17, 2001, in Methuen, Massachusetts. Neriah's journey through life, though brief, was marked by her gentle spirit and unwavering desire for peace and love. She departed from us on August 19, 2026, leaving behind a legacy of kindness and cherished memories.
Neriah was the beloved daughter of Dawna Guilmette and Brad Sullivan, and a loving sister to Matthew Sullivan. She was the cherished granddaughter of Linda Sullivan and Donald Guilmette, and she will be deeply missed by her aunts, uncles, several cousins, and her dear cat, Wasabi. She now joins her grandfather, Daniel Sullivan, great-grandmother, Anastasia Cullen, and family friend, Brian Teutonico, in eternal rest. Her therapy bunny, Meadow, too, awaits her in the fields of forever.
Her early years were spent in the nurturing embrace of Methuen, where she thrived academically and creatively. A proud graduate of Methuen High School's Class of 2020, Neriah achieved high honors and left an indelible mark by winning the 1st place in the 10th annual Arbeiter Holocaust Essay Contest in 2016. Her love for reading, theater, chorus, and music spoke volumes of her vibrant inner world, as did her passion for poetry and animals.
Neriah's career began behind the friendly smile of a cashier at Market Basket, where she first learned the art of customer service. Her professional journey culminated as a dedicated medical supply customer service representative at Werfen, a role that perfectly suited her empathetic nature.
Those who knew Neriah will remember her as a kind, warm, and gentle soul, whose soft-spoken demeanor belied a mind rich with thoughts and dreams. She was a beacon of empathy and trustworthiness, always seeking to bring peace and love to those around her.
Memorial services will be held on August 30, 2026, calling hours from 4:00-6:00 PM followed by a short service at the John Breen Funeral Home, located at 122 Amesbury Street, Lawrence, MA 01841.
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made to a mental health awareness charity of your choice, honoring Neriah's compassionate spirit and her dedication to the well-being of others.
Neriah Marie Sullivan's life was a testament to the power of love, empathy, and gentle strength. She will be profoundly missed but forever remembered by all whose lives she touched.
