Marissa had a wonderful way to make you feel loved and special. She loved her husband, Efrain and she loved fishing and mermaids. She would write notes to Efrain on the mirror and put them in his lunch box. One of her most favorite things to do to help her relax was to play with Efrain’s belly button and lay her head on his chest until she fell asleep. To know her was to love her. Her morning routine was to get up, make coffee and pack Efrain’s lunch for work. She did this every morning. After Efrain left for work, she would send him a message telling him she loved him and to have a wonderful day and he would send it back to her. She loved to do her makeup, was very outspoken and would always say what was on her mind. She truly was one of a kind and she made friends wherever she went.
