Dear Conlee Family,
I just learned of Marianne's passing today, December 30. My thoughts are with each of you, even though I do not personally know her children. Marianne has been an inspiration to me since our roommate days at BYU when we were 18 years old. She embraced life. Her goodness radiated to others when she entered a room. I know she will continue to serve and emulate the Savior, and she will do so with her beautiful spirit. May you, Bob, and each of your children be comforted by the memories and the love that you each share for her. Joanne Salmenson Owen and husband Gary Owen

Dear Dr. Conlee and Family,
Well, I heard today (December 30, 2006) of Marianne's passing. I am so sorry that your beloved wife is gone from your presence. However, in the Gospel of Christ we teach and believe in the life to come through the resurrection and the atonement of our Savior. As as you so eloquently said in the obituary, Heaven is a better place for her presence.
Marianne was a very dedicated and wonderful wife, Mother and companion. Few of us are so richly blessed in this life with such a grand example of eternal marriage and eternal love.
As for me, I am grateful for both of your love, friendship, and your great examples of Christ like living. May I be so blessed as to mirror your grand lives.
Dr. Conlee, as a former student of yours, I want you to know how much I love you. You have sent my professional ship asail with your grand examples of professional behavior, work ethic, and research integrity. I have to say that all that I am professionally, I owe to you my dear friend and colleague. My career as a University professor and researcher is due to your mentorship. Thank you from the bottom my heart.
God bless you - as I know He will - in these hours of your sorrow.
Love, David and Sheridan Arnall

Dear Pres. Conlee and Family,
I have just learned, today, of Sister Conlee’s passing and I am so saddened. My deepest condolences to all of you.
Sister Conlee was a wonderful spirit in every sense of the word and it was an honor to have known her.
She was a solid member of the church and an influence to all acquainted with her. All the Conlee kids, I know, are a testament to her skills as a mother and someone who led by example.
President Conlee, I know I haven’t seen you for many years but both you and Sister Conlee and your family have been a great example to me and are the sort of people I have always hoped to emulate. I am blessed to have always been welcome in your home.
May our Heavenly Father bless you and comfort you all at this time.

We are thankful to have known Sister Conlee and her wonderful family. We remember fondly the many times she lovingly held our children during church when we needed help. She was always kind and curteous as I came to her home as a home teacher. There is not a better prepared person to enter the world of spirits. Our love, thoughts and prayers are with the Conlees and their loved ones who mourn. We pray that the good tidings of peace, proclaimed by angels more than 2000 years ago, will abide with the Conlee family this holiday season.

Dear Conlee Family,
After a very sweet experience this morning, I felt to add my heartfelt thanks and best wishes to each of you for the wonderful spirit shared on such a difficult day today. Your testimonies were powerful, and I know that mine increased greatly because of your faith, and because of the renewed hope we all feel as we long to be with those we've lost. I appreciate so much the great example you have all been for me and my family, and for the fathering my brothers and I have recieved at your hands Pres. Conlee. I also want to tell you how much we appreciate the love and concern that you and Marianne have given for so long to our sweet mom. She has indeed felt the great loss of a dear friend these past days, and I know that she is also so appreciative.
May the Lord bless each of you as you continue on, knowing that your dear mother and wife is safe with so many, including a very loving Father in Heaven.
Love, Bryce and Krista Neubert

Dear Bob and family,
You know how much I love Marianne. I have an idea what you are going through because it hasn't been very long since I lost my husband. Time does help.
Marianne was a pure gem and we are all richer for knowing her. She will be with you and the knowledge of the plan of salvation will help in the rough times.

Dear Bob and Family,
We are so saddened by your loss, but rejoice for the beautiful life that Marianne lead. She was a testament to all. I will never forget her valiant example wrestling with your young children during sacrament meeting in the Iowa City Ward. I was a new member and so impressed with her patience and love. Whenever I have visited your home she has made me feel loved. I am just glad that she shared part of her life with me and was such a testament of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Love, Ali (Goetz) & Phil Pili

Dear James and Family,
There just aren't words that seem adequate enough at a time like this, but please know how much you and your entire family are in our hearts and in our prayers. Amazing mothers get a very special place in heaven, that I know. Much, much love to you and your family.

Dear Conlee family,
Marianne and I met regularly in the Ladies Locker Room at BYU when we went to exercise during the mid-1990's. She was warm, kind, and welcoming, even thereafter when our schedules changed. Now Steve, Giselle, and family have carried her legacy of love into our Pleasant Grove neighborhood. Mothers can never really die, and we will see them again. The alternative is unthinkable. With sincere condolences, Cynthia L. Hallen

I was so impressed by all that your wife and mother accomplished while on this earth in reading this posting. May God bless and be with all of you as you go through the times of lonliness, but realize that she will always be there and a part of your lives..

Dear Bob,
You and Marianne have always been an amazing example of unconditional love, friendship, humor, and family. We are so sorry to hear of Marianne's passing. Her wonderful legacy is evident through your children and grandchildren.
Steve gave a very moving and heart felt performance Friday night at the concert. It must have been very difficult for him to perform under those circumstances. I think everyone in the audience was moved by his performance.
May the Spirit of the Lord bless and comfort you and your family.

Dear Conlee Family,
As a person who worked with Marianne at the temple, I was so saddened and shocked to hear of her passing. Every praise I read in the obituary is well deserved and so true of her beautiful spirit. It was beautifully written, I might add. She will be greatly missed.
