Melissa passed away unexpectedly on May 5th, 2018. Melissa was born in Murray Utah to Michael and Charlene Fitzgerald. Melissa's greatest joy in life was her 4 children! She was happiest when they were with her. They loved to pile in her bed to get a group hug and be silly. Melissa was always thinking of fun things to do with her kids. On one Easter she dressed up as the Easter Bunny and was hopping around the yard hiding eggs. Her children faces were pressed to the window with a look of wonder.
Melissa was happiest when she was building memories with her children. She worked with one of her closest friends, photographer Lamond Warnick. Together they would plan great adventures for the children. Lamond was always there for her and the kids. Melissa loved to create back drops for photography. Melissa had a big heart and always showed concern for others and wanted all to be happy.
Words cannot express the love that we have for her and the void in our hearts left behind. We find comfort to know that she is in heaven with family and friends that have gone before her.
Survived by the loves of her life, her children Charley, Cash, Raynen and Olivia; mother; sisters Michelle and Andrea (Brett); and extended family. Preceded in death by her father; and grandparents.
Friends are invited to greet her family at a viewing on Wednesday, May 9th from 6:00 to 8:00 PM at Larkin Sunset Gardens, 1950 E. Dimple Dell Rd. (10600 S.), Sandy.
