Kaye Lynn
Sansoni
December 15, 1961 – April 21, 2026
Kaye L. Sansoni, 64, passed away peacefully at home on April 21, 2026. She was born on December 15, 1961, in Kirkwood, Missouri. Kaye lived a life rooted in love, laughter, and deep connection with those around her.
She was the beloved wife of Joseph A. Sansoni and a devoted mother to Jacob T. Sansoni (Breanna Clark) and Oksana N. Sansoni. Kaye was a proud and loving grandmother to Tyler N. Sansoni. She is also survived by her sister, Kimm L. O'Connor (Tom Long), and her three nieces, Mariah N. Cunningham, Fawn A. Ruch, and Grace A. Green.
Kaye was preceded in death by her parents, Jessie R. Garn and Jeanine Swantner; her brother, Kent L. Garn; and her in-laws, Joseph F. and Roseanne Sansoni.
Kaye built a meaningful career as a Senior Research Administrator at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, where she was respected for her dedication and strong work ethic. Outside of her profession, she will be remembered most for the warmth she brought into every room. She had a contagious laugh, a generous spirit, and a way of making everyone feel welcome in her home. Kaye cherished time spent with family and friends, who were always at the center of her life.
Kaye's kindness, strength, and selfless nature will be deeply missed and forever remembered by all who knew and loved her.
