In her free time, Maylee enjoyed spending time with her family and friends—laughing and being silly! She had a love for arts & crafts, which is often how she would express her bright, creative personality. She also loved planning parties and organizing family events, often trying new things with each experience. Above all else, she cherished life itself and saw the humor in everything. Her smile was vibrant and her laugh was bubbly and infectious. Maylee's cheerful countenance was contagious and her joyful personality brightened the day of everyone around her. She was a miracle to all who knew her. She is survived by her parents, Stuart and Christine Anderson, and her older brother, Benjamin Anderson. Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m., Saturday, June 6, 2015 at the Highland West Stake Center, 11605 North 6000 West, Highland, Utah.
