Mariscka lived in Blanchard, Oklahoma almost all of her life. She attended Blanchard Public Schools from Kindergarten through graduation in 2003. She enjoyed listening to music, and spending time with her children, family and friends. She worked in various retail and service oriented jobs throughout her adult life because she was a "people person." At the time of her death she worked at Dollar General as the assistant manager, where she met many new friends. Mariscka always had a smile... no matter what she was going through, she had a smile to give or share with you. Her beautiful life will forever be cherished in the lives of her children. As a result of her generous spirit and pleasant personality, she was loved by many and she will be deeply missed by her friends, family, and all that knew her. So the next time the sun is shining bright...remember it's just her smiling.
