Desiree Jean Messmer, 25, Bismarck, was called by our Savior to her eternal resting place in heaven on Feb. 24, 2006. Services will be held at 10 a.m. Wednesday, March 1, at Lord of Life Lutheran Church, Bismarck. Burial will be at Fairview Cemetery, Bismarck.

Desiree was born alongside her twin sister, Marcey, at Medcenter One on Oct. 22, 1980, the daughter of Gene and Sherry (Gullickson) Messmer. She was raised and attended school in Bismarck and graduated from United Tribes Technical College with a degree in criminal justice. Desiree was employed with the North Dakota State Penitentiary as a prison officer and worked for Dacotah Foundation as an ACS staff.

Desiree always found time for her family and friends. She always made friends wherever she went. She loved being surrounded by people and could always make you laugh. Everyone always knew when Des would enter a room.

Growing up in school, Des and her twin sister, Marcey, were involved in many activities together, such as ice skating, swimming, dance, softball, gymnastics and soccer. During high school, Des enjoyed playing hockey, although she ended up in the penalty box most of the time. Over the years growing up, she spent many years traveling and camping with her family, which she loved to do. Desiree was a natural talent when it came to water skiing. She loved laughing and telling stories with friends and family late into the night around the campfire.

Desiree always had a passion and pride in the many occupations she took on. She always took jobs that involved trying to help people. Des was a workaholic and a shopaholic; she always had to have the best. She always made sure everyone in her family had the best little tokens or gifts. It brought such a smile to her face when she gave gifts to her family.

Desiree had a special niece and godchild named Taylor. Des would call her "little bugs" and it would make Taylor smile from ear to ear. She would call on the phone frequently to have the phone put by Taylor's ear so she could say "How's my little bugs?" She took great pride in Taylor and always made sure she was dressed to impress. Desiree's heart, spirit and smile will live on through her niece, Taylor.

She is survived by her parents, Gene and Sherry Messmer; her twin sister, Marcey, and her husband, Chad; her godchild and niece, Taylor Bartosh; her brother, Drew; her grandparents, Leona Guttormson and Victor and Clara Messmer; her special friend, Barten; and her uncles, aunts, cousins and friends.

Preceding Desiree in death were her brother, Chad Messmer; and her grandparents, Gullick Gullickson and Carl Guttormson.
