I will forever remember exactly how I felt on this day 9 yrs ago ! It was absolutely the worst day of my life besides losing my son but I know he’s up there with you . I love you sm Marissa ! Watch over us today
This memorial website was created in memory of my beautiful daughter, Marissa Nicole Volner, 18, born on September 24, 1996 and passed away on January 23, 2015 from injuries sustained in a car accident. She is dearly loved and missed by so many. Her light will always shine bright within us. She left an imprint on everyone's heart that she came in contact with. And left unforgettable memories. We hope that everyone will share memories of Marissa from the life that they shared with her for all to enjoy.

25 years ago an amazing little girl was born September 24 1996. From What I have read on this site , she was quite an exceptional person that brought joy to all who knew her. Tragically she was killed in Jan 24 2015. Too young for any person to parish. She cared about all people and elected to donate any organ to anyone who needed one if she died. I am the luck recipient of one of her organs and I will remember her for the rest of my life. Thank you Marissa, Happy birthday.

Although I did know Marissa Volner from this site and all the stories told she sounded like a super lady. I wish the family peace and comfort knowing her legacy lives on through all who knew her and the gifts she left behind.
I thank her every day for her organ donor gift. I continue to live because of her. I will never forget her.
Thank you Marissa!

Missing You
December 28, 2022
Every year for Christmas I come up and share a shot with you and just have a couple words , tell you about my life or how everyone is doing . I’m sure you know because you are watching down on all of us . Sometimes I just come up on a random sunny day and just play some music and smile in remembrance of you . I hope you and everyone of our friends that got taken from us to soon found each other and stuck by each others side . As hard as it is for us down here missing you guys I’m sure it’s hard from the top view .
I love you friend

2 families with a lifetime bond
December 19, 2016
Yesterday we met a wonderful family that we now have a lifetime bond with. You see my girl lives on, her heart still beats loud and strong. I am so proud that God and Marissa chose this special family to receive the best part of my baby and bring our families together. Once strangers to having a undescribable connection is such a blessing. I am so proud to say, my Child is a hero. She made the decision to save peoples lives once she was gone. My heart will be forever broken but there was a little gold that filled some of those cracks today. Marissa Nicole left a trail of glitter, and she will NEVER be forgotten, I am one proud momma!
A Special Tribute

Marissa's best friend and soulmate Maddi had a beautiful baby girl on April 5th 2016. She named her Marissa Marie after her Angel "aunt" Marissa. This is such a special tribute and honor. We cannot wait to share stories with baby Marissa Marie.
