Mary Marie Greene Jex

April 24, 1941 - December 25, 2019

MARIE GREENE JEX “Mimi” Our beloved Mom, Mimi, sister, aunt and friend passed away peacefully in her home Christmas morning after a courageous battle with breast cancer. Marie was uncommonly selfless. She was always finding ways to serve and show love and kindness to those around her. She was a patient and attentive listener whose sincerity was unmatched. She was the epitome of a loving mom to her two kids, and excelled in the art of being the most outstanding Mimi to her four grandkids. They were the light of her life and she made sure that they, and everyone else, knew it. As an adult, Marie worked tirelessly to graduate from the University of Utah with a degree in Psychology. She worked for many years in the Granite School District where she made many deep and lifelong friendships. After retirement, she found a great love in volunteering within the ESL program at Granite Park Jr High. She found joy in the goodness and humility of the refugee children she served. Marie is quite simply irreplaceable, and will be deeply missed by all who were fortunate enough to know and love her. In Lieu of flowers and in keeping with the spirit of Marie's e, please donate to the American Cancer Society or your favorite charity. Services will be held 12:00 Noon, Tuesday, December 31, 2019 at Premier Funeral Home 67 East 8000 South, Midvale, UT where an open house will be held from 10:30-12:00 followed by a brief service.
