    This wonderful person leaves an empty spot in a lot of hearts. Michelle had a wonderful way of entertaining all of us with her bubbly personality. She will be missed so so much but will be an amazing addition to heaven. Rest in paradise, little one. You will be loved and missed for a long time.

    Michele was a great cook. She had a thing about putting plastic heads on stakes and thought it was hilarious to scare people. She looked better in her aqua blue Mary Tyler Moore jumpsuit than Mary Tyler Moore did.

    I wish you hadn’t left us, Michele. I will miss you terribly and will always be grateful our paths crossed. I hope you know how much I love you.

    “I’M FREE” Don’t cry for me, for now I’m free. I’ve followed the path that GOD laid for me. I took his hand when I heard him call, I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day, to laugh, to love, to cry, to play. Task left undone must stay that way, I am at peace every day. Since my parting will leave a sad lost void, then fill it up with remembered joy. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, Oh yes, these thing’s, I too will miss. My life’s been filled, I’ve savored much. Good friend’s good times, a loved ones touch. Per-hap’s my time was all to brief, please don’t lengthen it with undue grief. Lift up your heart’s and share it with me, God wanted me home “‘HE HAS SET ME FREE”- I was so unfortunate to have only met “Angel’ Michele, on two occasion’s. Once at Christmas at her beloved companion Tim’s, Mother and myself’s house for dinner. I never met someone that could put a smile on my face so fast as she did, and that’s not easy!! The second time our path’s crossed, was on a flyby, picking up her, so loved, children at her babysitter’s house, who as it turned out happened be, beloved “Angel” Rita, my Sister. GOD has called them both home, now.. GOD does not want us to live in a world full of misery. When your heart is breaking and you feel you can’t breathe, think of all those funny, loving, weird, crazy smiling times, that made her who she is and why she is so loved by so many, until we all meet again. GOD BLESS YOU ALL

    I remember this picture of her well. I thought it was so beautiful I used it to paint a portrait of her for high school art class. Her personality is showing through, beautiful from the inside out.
