To Mr. & Mrs. Denson, Our thoughts, our prayers and our hearts go out to you on the loss of your wonderful Marissa. You truly were blessed to have raised such an amazing lady. Attending the service for Marissa was such a beautiful experience and from all of the love and remarks it seems everyone knew the same beautiful soul that we at Syngenta did. She offered that magnificent smile and positive attitude to everyone she met. She also spoke of her love for her Mom and Daddy with any one who would listen. Without question, you were both the most important people in her life. Thank you for sharing her with us and may God bless you and your family. Jim Branson / Syngenta

I had the pleasure of knowing Marissa and seeing her smiling face each morning as she was a cashier in our café. Marissa will be remembered as being one of the nicest, warmest, most caring people. We are all shocked and saddened to hear of this vibrant, young woman's passing. Rest in peace Marissa. My condolences go out to Marissa's mother and father (and she spoke so fondly of them, so often), and her entire family.

Marissa was a wonderful, caring, and nurturing person. I always looked forward to my visits with her in our cafeteria each day. We laughed alot, sharing stories of our lives and love for our families. Marissa had a larger than life presence and could always cheer you up with her infectious laugh. Marissa had a way about her of making you feel like you were the most important person to her at that moment, when you were speaking with her. That was a wonderful gift that she shared with all of her co-workers. I have no doubt that Marissa is in Heaven, continuing her wonderful work of loving everyone. I miss her dearly. My sincerest sympathy to Marissa's father and mother and all of her family.

Marissa was and will be remembered by many for her calm, warm and loving nature. Her smile will be missed and she'll live on in our memories as an example of how to express each of our natural gifts for the betterment of others.

There are so many wonderful things I can say about Marissa, of those, she was very sweet, kind, loving and had a huge heart with the gift of giving. I will miss hearing her laughter and will always remember her for her smile and the multitudes of laughs we shared working at Syngenta. She may be gone, but she will never be forgotten! I know she is resting easy in the hands of our Heavenly Father and for that I am at peace! I offer my deepest sympathies to her Mother, & Father, and all of us that loved her! Revelations 21:4

It saddened me greatly to learn of Marissa's death. She was one of those people who always made your day with that winning smile. She treated everyone with kindness and if she thought you were having a bad day, she would give you a hug. She was a very loving soul and touched many lives with her love. I feel very blessed to have known Marissa. She was loved by many. My heart goes out to her family and to all who loved her.

- Ro Olson

She touched so many people's lives each day in the cafe with her sweetness, kind words, and wonderful smile. We would walk out together each day it seemed and she would make me laugh as I watched her get into the car with her sweet daddy and drive away. Never forgotten. Praying for your family. So happy that you are most likely making all of heaven laugh and smile now. XOXO

Like many of my colleagues at Syngenta, I always appreciated Marissa's positive attitude, the time she took to remember our names and details of our lives, and the 'Have a Great Weekend!' she told me every Friday. I hope her family can take some comfort in knowing that she will be remembered fondly.
