I am so deeply sorry to hear the news about Marilee. You are so right, she was an amazing force of nature. I have such fond memories of her, especially at the Mesa holiday parties. So thankful I saw her in July before we moved. I'm sorry we missed the celebration of her life, but we shall toast her with a margarita. My sincere condolences to you all.

God Bless Marilee Jones. She is a super very special person. I will miss her. Bryan, what a beautiful tribute to your Mother! We do have funny memories of times together on 4th of July.

One time as The Campbell family with the 4 children were leaving you yelled bye house wreckers. So hilarious! Through my life's ups and downs, your Mom was always very supportive. And...

I will miss my little sister. Being the big sis, I had to babysit her if my parents went out. If I had a date she would go along and sit between us!Marilee was so proud of her family and loved to tell me what Christopher had been doing. She was a really proud grandmother. I will miss her.
