Clarissa Kendra Venancio, 24 of Franklin, passed away on Wednesday, Feb. 5, 2025, at her home. She was born Saturday, Sept. 30, 2000, the daughter of Leonardo Venancio of Lexington, who survives, and Natasha Dukes of Franklin, who also survives.
She was a server at Johnny Rocket's at Opry Mills Mall in Nashville.
Clarissa was a brilliant young woman who had a passion for photography and the creative arts. She was a talented makeup artist and loved to dance. She was just as beautiful behind a camera as she was in front of one. She had an unmatched dramatic flare when it came to style, fashion, and makeup. She could go from girl-next-door to a rockstar's dream with the flick of a makeup brush.
Clarissa was also extremely proud of her Mexican culture, music, food, and style. She loved to travel and really hoped to visit London one day. Although she was spoiled and sassy, she was also very funny and had a heart of gold. She will be missed terribly by all who know and love her.
Along with her parents, Clarissa is survived by her sister, Leah Venancio of Lexington; her brother, Leonardo Venancio Jr. of Colorado; her godmother, Astarre Gudino of Lexington; and her stepfather, Pascual Alonzo of Franklin.
Cremation was chosen with services to be held at a later date.
