We created a GatheringUs memorial to celebrate the life of Mariel Jan Longwell Sweeney Smiley. Collecting your stories and memories here will offer us great comfort. As we plan virtual gatherings, we will post invites. Remember to RSVP to help us plan. Thank you for contributing to this lasting memorial.
OBITUARY
She was a mentor and motherly to all those who knew her. She rattled the walls fighting for social justice and helped bring spiritual guidance to many. She told amazing stories, took in strangers and raised a beautiful family starting with nothing. We love you mama and we'll find you soon at the castle.
