Lorelei "Doodle" Elizabeth Geoghegan, 5, of Suffolk, Virginia traded in her warrior princess cape and hair bow for the most beautiful angel wings on July 7, 2021.

Lorelei faced battles every single day with hope in her heart, love in her eyes and perfect, epic hair. She accomplished more in her short five years than most could do in 100 years. Despite being nonverbal due to her rare form of Mitochondrial Disease, Lorelei shared her pure, yet often sassy, soul with everyone. She was an expert cuddler, lover of Disney movies, happy camper, hammock aficionado, sucker for fart noises, Daisy Girl Scout and guacamole lick-tester. Her heart was happiest when she was kicking, splashing, playing or floating in water.

Lorelei leaves behind her proud, faithful, and dare we say exhausted Dada and Mama, Michael and Susan Geoghegan, her soulmate of a little brother, Benji, her companion dogs Olivia and Jovie Doodle - as well as loving grandparents, aunties and uncles.

She powered through by the eternal grace of God, the never ending love of her family and the overwhelming support of her medical team and Fridays With Lorelei community.

Lorelei's life will be celebrated on July 20, 2021 at 4PM at the Lesner Inn in Virginia Beach, VA.  Dress code is bright colors, tie dye optional.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Lorelei and Benji's Fund for a Mito Cure ( chop.donordrive.com/campaign/ Lorelei ), CHKD ( secure.qgiv.com/for/chkd ), Edmarc ( www.edmarc.org ) or SMILE ( www.smileasier.org/donate ) in her honor.
