Danika Rianne Sullens, 32, of Springfield, MO, passed away January 21, 2021. She was born March 23, 1988, in Springfield, MO, to Kirk and Judy Sullens.

Danika loved cookies, stuffed animals, and snuggly blankets. She was outgoing and lived life full-speed-ahead. The one word that everyone used to describe her was bubbly. She had an open and trusting heart and never met a stranger. She took great joy in giving the perfect gift. The ultimate love of her life was her dog, Romeo. She took great care of him even when her means were meager.

She was preceded in death by grandparents, Joe and Joan Sullens, Seth and Anna Wilson, Raymond Miller; and great-grandmother, Olive Miller.

Danika is survived by her mother, Judy Sullens; father, Kirk Sullens; step-mother, Mona Pieron; brother, Michael Sullens; sister and brother-in-law, Anna and Tom Hunt; and nephew and niece, Sam and Olivia Hunt; many aunts, uncles, and cousins; and her beloved dog, Romeo.
