Marianne passed away 29 October 2011 in Highland, UT from Colon Cancer. She fought a good fight and did her best to beat the cancer. She was peaceful knowing there were others waiting for her on the other side and that she had done her best. Her funeral was 5 November 2011 in Highland, UT.
We stayed with Kyle and Kamany in Utah and they watched the kids during the funeral services. Kamany made a birthday cake for Tyson because his birthday was Sunday and we were traveling on that day. She also let them draw on her windows with special crayons and markers. Thank you, Aunt Kamany, for making a difficult situation fun for the kids!
