Mariesa Marshay King was born on August 15, 1995 to Maple King in Tulsa, OK. She was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy at birth with medical professionals not showing much faith in her survival past a baby, Mariesa’s sweet and loving spirit shined on as she continued to grow.

Mariesa leaves to cherish her memory, her mother Maple King, her foster/caregiver’s family, Bruce and Delores Benham, Jacqueline Sanchez, Jocelyn Ryan and Jacinda Benham.
