Merie Lee, I will never forget you, and the wonderful times we had together. I hope our souls will cross paths again and that we will tell everyone that "the new phone books are here" and to "walk this way !!!"

Killian, you have my deepest sympathy and condolences. I know her loss must be great for you. It is for me.

Merrie Lee and I became fast friends in the late 1980's in Cape Coral, Florida.  Back then, when you walked into her house, you'd hear dogs barking, African Gray parrots crying in unison with baby Killian, and a general chaos that made sense if you knew Merrie Lee.  How we laughed!
Our friendship carried on to the present day, through all the cross-country moves, job changes, relationships, personal ups & downs, and all the animals past and present.  Simple events turned into a million inside jokes, the kind we would later say "remember when?"
Merrie Lee lived earnestly and fully, loving life, caring about the people and world around her.  She was truly a loyal friend and wonderful spirit.  "Dahlink", you will be dearly missed and never out of our memory.
To Killian, Amanda and Taylor,  there are few words we can say right now to bring comfort, but we hope there will be peace in your knowing just how loved your mother will always be.



Merrie Lee came into my life when her dad married my mom, Gladys.  I remember mom teaching her to do some cooking in the early years and I know mom loved her dearly.  She adored her dad and also loved my mom, but her biggest treasure was Killian.  In later years, I came to realize that she had a heart as big as Texas with a giving spirit to match.  She loved to go antique shopping when she visited and I will always remember our long evening conversations.

Merrielee, is my Step-Sister when her father Ralph Fowler married my mother Gladys Hancock Fowler.  She could light up a room when she entered and had a sweet little laugh. One of my favorite memories is when she and KILLIAN came to California one summer on vacation. We rafted the Trinity River together and  had a great time. Later my wife and I traveled to Florida on vacation. We had such good times and shared good spirits.  We pray KILLIAN can find comfort in knowing his mother is at Peace. He was the light of her Life and Joy in her heart. She was Loved and will be missed by us all. 

I remember heartfelt chats with Merrie Lee often when working at Cox.  She was such a wonderful person.   Condolences to her son.

 I will miss our talks we had and our working relationship. Killian, so sorry for your loss! She spoke of you often and how proud she was of you! 

Farewell, my friend. I will always remember your smile and your crazy personality.  I will miss your quick wit and slightly twisted sense of humor. You were always a wonderful, giving,  generous friend. May God embrace you in his loving arms until we meet again. 

I was so very sad to hear about Merrie Lee's passing. She was such a positive, upbeat person.  Always thoughtful and kind to me.  She was smart and quick to help out. She taught me a few things that I continue to use today! I'm grateful I was able to work with her, and will miss her and our chats.  She and her family will remain in my thoughts and prayers. 

I am so sorry to hear about Merrie Lee's passing.   She was a joy to be around  and I am proud to have been her friend.  

My condolences to the family.

I am so sorry to hear about this.  
Rest in Peace Merrie Lee!

Oh Merrie Lee from the moment I met you at Cox business service, I knew you were unique soul.  Both being born and raised in Cali, made us bond quickly.  You were smart, hilarious and hard working person I know.   You were giving and had the biggest heart.  I will never forget you.  Killion my heart goes out to you and your family.  She loved you and was so absolutely proud of you.  Never forget that, you were the center of her world.
I will miss you Merrie Lee

I remember when MerrieLee first started with Mediacom. She came into the Helpdesk where I was preparing her laptop. We hit it off right away. She was always very nice to me. She will be missed for certain.

Merri Lee was a joy to have on our team and always had a smile and encouraging word for her co-workers.  She will be missed by many.   You will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.  

My deepest condolences, Killian. Merrie Lee would stop by my desk when she came to the office and it would always end with laughs. I truly will miss her, I do not know were I am going to get my bag of coal from at Christmas time. May her spirit live with everyone she touch with love.

I am so saddened to hear this. Merrie Lee was such a kind hearted person. When she worked with Cox Business we spoke all the time about work and it always went to our personal lives. She always spoke about you Killian, and was so proud of you. Merrie Lee had such a contagious laugh and was one of the most colorful people I had ever met. I know we will all miss her dearly. 

So sorry to hear this. She will be missed .. praying for all...

I had the pleasure of working with Merrie Lee on the Enterprise team at Cox Business for several years, and kept in touch after our time at Cox. I have fond memories volunteering with  Merrie Lee at Ronald McDonald House, Winners Circle, and hearing her dogs and parrot in the background on many team calls. She had a loud, contagious laugh that bubbled up from deep in her soul. She was always speaking of her son; her Killian.  She was a good person, and I hope she finds eternal peace in Heaven.. Finally, no more quota. No more stress. No more worries. Until we meet again, Cheers to you, my friend. 

Prayers for Killian and family as you face your difficult loss.  Merrie Lee was a wonderful person, loved and respected by many.  I had the privilege of being her Manager at Cox Business for several years and grew to love her quick since of humor and strong determination.  She was a fabulous Account Manager and a great team-player.  She was also a wonderful friend, always ready to help a friend in need.  She overcame so many obstacles in her efforts to learn cold-calling that I dubbed her “the queen of CBS.”  I will never forget Merrie Lee Fowler.  God rest her sweet soul.

My deepest condolences, Killian.  Your Mom and I worked together at Cox Business and we had many business successes while there and spent many afternoons over coffee talking about issues in our lives.  We stayed in touch after our time at CB, including her referral to a manager position at Mediacom, hoping we could work again.  She was quick to laughter and had a great sense of sarcastic humor.  I'm sure that many times she was the only one who got my jokes.  We were both California born-and-bred (she was born in my hometown of Culver City) and we shared childhood memories when CA was all about The Beach Boys and having fun.  Being a veteran of USAF, she couldn't wait to share stories with me about you and there were many.  You were the moon and the stars to her.  If a conversation with her did not include you at some point, I think I would need to check her temperature.   May God forever bless her pure heart.

I am so sorry to hear this Killian!  I thought the world of your mom!  Rest In Peace Merrie Lee! XO
