Merissa was a vet tech for most of her adult life and her love of animals was evident. Later she became a valuable asset as a stagehand. She could do anything and everything she set her mind to, and her coworkers loved her as she treated everyone equally.
Merissa enjoyed spending time with family and playing games such as rolling dice and cards.
