Lauren's obituary
It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Lauren Nave. Lauren was born on July 10, 1962, and departed this life on April 28, 2025. A woman of abundant kindness and love, she touched numerous lives with her radiant personality and unwavering positivity.
Lauren will be remembered by all who knew her as a friendly, spiritual, and understanding soul. Always full of love and positivity, she had an innate ability to make people feel appreciated and loved. Her lasting legacy is a testament to her approach to life: kindness, understanding, and friendship to all she encountered.
Among her many accomplishments, Lauren was proud to be the proprietor of her own beauty salon, pouring her passion and craft into making people feel confident and beautiful. The wisdom she shared was simple yet profound; she taught us to keep doing our best, no matter what life throws at us.
Lauren's family will honor and miss her. She was predeceased by both her mother and father. Lauren is survived by her sister Jamie Nave, brother Russell Nave (Marilyn), and nephews Parker (Jasmine) and Grant.
Lauren leaves a legacy of many friendships, some lasting for much of her life. She had a long-term involvement in the Renaissance Faire where she met and maintained many friends. She acted in many different theater productions. She had the voice of an angel and would often delight people around her with her love of singing.
After suffering an extended hospital stay in 2018, Lauren had to adjust to a life in a wheelchair. And she did adjust. She learned to go see live theater, she often went to Knotts Berry Farm and Disneyland. She participated in game nights and still had people visit her at home regularly.
A Celebration of Life in honor of Lauren will take place on September 14, 2025, at 11:00 AM at Willow Grove El Dorado Park West, Studebaker-Los Arcos. In lieu of flowers, a fund has been set up in Lauren's memory with the American Heart Association at the following address: https://everloved.com/life-of….

In her life and her passing, Lauren continues to inspire and uplift us. Her love, kindness, and undying spirit will survive through the countless lives she touched. We will forever remember her with gratitude and strive to honor her legacy in our everyday actions.
