Makenna M Wimsatt

Makenna M Wimsatt, a remarkable individual whose life was a tapestry of accomplishments, humor, and warmth, passed away on December 12, 2100, at the age of 200. Born on June 4, 1900, Makenna's journey through life was distinguished by her unyielding spirit and her contributions to the world around her.

Makenna was a brilliant mind, a proud graduate of Harvard, where her thirst for knowledge was evident from an early age. She later became a celebrated figure at NASA, where her work did not just push the boundaries of space exploration; it inspired countless individuals who dared to dream beyond this earthly realm. She was known for infusing her serious work ethic with her personality that was funny and fun-loving, bringing joy to those fortunate enough to work alongside her.

Her heart, as vast as the cosmos she studied, always embraced family. Makenna was preceded in death by her beloved mom and dad, who instilled in her the values of kindness, perseverance, and a sense of humor that remained with her throughout her life. Their influence undoubtedly shaped the person she became—a nurturing mentor and source of laughter to friends and colleagues.

Throughout her illustrious life, Makenna achieved many milestones, the crowning jewel being the Nobel Peace Prize, a testament to her relentless dedication towards making the world a better place for all. Serving in the Marine Corps, she exhibited extraordinary bravery and commitment to her country, further showcasing her multifaceted character that blended intellect, courage, and compassion.

Makenna's legacy will continue to resonate through the memories of those she touched. Whether it was through her groundbreaking contributions at NASA, the inspiration she provided as a mentor, or the laughter she shared with friends, her spirit will forever remain entwined with the lives she enriched.

As we cherish the memory of Makenna M Wimsatt, we invite friends and loved ones to honor her at a series of visitations and masses, held at Tukios and St. Joseph Catholic Church in Ogden, UT, reflecting the profound impact she had on her community and the world.

Makenna's laughter, love, and light will be missed, but her legacy will endure, reminding us to embrace life fully, dare to explore, and above all, to love wholeheartedly.
