Liam James Dempsey of Warwick Dies at 4
Tuesday, March 26, 2024
Liam James Dempsey, age 4, of Warwick, was called to be with God on Thursday, March 21, 2024. Born in Providence on May 15, 2019, he was the beloved child of Estefania (Rivera) Dempsey, and the late Seamus Dempsey.
A student at the Warwick Early Learning Center, his intelligence and enthusiasm for learning shone brightly. He had a contagious energy that brought joy to everyone around him.
Liam was a playful soul who adored running around and engaging in adventures with his older brother. His love for dinosaurs and cars knew no bounds, and he found immense joy in watching "Toy Story" and watching videos of Godzilla on YouTube. He had a special fondness for little things that brought him happiness, whether it was a dinosaur-shaped chicken nugget, his morning bagel with cream cheese, or strawberry frosted donuts from Dunkin.
His favorite color was purple, a hue that symbolizes creativity, rarity, and spirituality, qualities that mirrored Liam's vibrant personality. He had an uncanny ability to find wonder in the world around him, appreciating every moment with a zest for life that was truly remarkable.
Liam's laughter and exuberance touched the hearts of everyone he encountered. His absence leaves a void that can never be filled, and he will be deeply missed by his family, friends, teachers, and all who had the privilege of knowing him.
As we mourn the loss of this precious soul, we also celebrate the joy and love that Liam brought into our lives. His memory will forever remain in our hearts, a bright light that continues to shine even in the darkest of times.
In addition to his mother, Liam is survived by his older brother, whom he greatly looked up to, Gabriel Dempsey; maternal grandparents, Maribel Santizo and her husband Guillermo Santizo, and Francisco Rivera and his Fiancé Dalila Torres; paternal grandmother, Ellen Dempsey; aunts and uncles, Sean Dempsey, Alex Santizo, Antonio Rivera, Nayeli Rivera, Chainalee Rivera, and Wesley Rivera; and many cousins.
Relatives and friends are invited to attend a shared visitation with his father Seamus on Friday, March 29, 2024 from 3:00-8:00PM with a Prayer Service at 5:30PM, in the Thomas and Walter Quinn Funeral Home, 2435 Warwick Ave, Warwick.
