Mei Li S. Ringquist

Mei Li Ringquist, aged 14, passed unexpectedly at her home on Saturday, November 2nd, 2024. Family and friends are invited to a time of visitation on Tuesday, November 12th from 3 – 6PM at Doran Funeral Home, 4 East Bayard St., Seneca Falls. A private memorial service will be held at a very special place to Mei Li, the Charlie Major Nature Trail in Skaneateles, at the convenience of her family. In lieu of flowers, her family asks for you to bring a smile to someone’s face by performing a selfless act for another.

Mei Li was the eldest daughter of Christopher Ringquist and Patricia Jerge. She was currently a student at Romulus Central School. Mei Li had a great imagination and exceptional artistic talent. She would think up all different types of characters, draw them out on paper, and bring them to life for all to see. In addition to drawing, she spent her free time listening to music—especially that of her all-time favorite artist: Melanie Martinez. She was smitten by anything to do with cats and kittens, and she was drawn to the mystery of our solar system and its planets. Mei Li also enjoyed playing soccer and volleyball.

Mei Li is survived by her father, Christopher Ringquist; mother, Patricia (Frankie Schaller) Jerge; siblings, Sadiya Ringquist, with whom she shared an unbreakable bond, Trey and Logan Ringquist and Nevaeh Carter; special aunt, Pam (Ben) Gilmore; cousins, Sabine and Elise Gilmore; and her all-time favorite cat, Jynxie. She was predeceased by her Pappy, David Peterson in 2017.
