I am so very sorry to hear of Michele's passing.  My prayers are with all her family and loved ones as you grieve!  May God hod you all close and give you His comfort and peace. Kari (Rietdorf) Troxel

My thoughts and prayers are with Micheles's family and with Dani. Michele and I were good friends in High School and I have some cherished memories of times we shared. May her love of life live on in all of you.

It was so wonderful to be able to be with Michele the last days of her life. I loved her like a sister and will miss her for the rest of my life. She made me laugh, she brought joy to the world, and she was the best friend ever. So many happy memories since meeting her in the fall of 1974 as college freshmen. Bruce and I send all our love to Hank, Noelle and Francesca. May you find peace and strength in the days ahead.

Hank, Noelle, and Francesca I love you guys so much and I am praying for daily strength and comfort knowing that Michele loved you so.. The memories from JFK Medical Center and beyond with Michele helps me day by day. Also the fact that she is in heaven with Gabi. You have two angels watching over you...

I'm visiting my sister, Angela in Italy, where Michele and I traveled and visited  our Italian roots together while  we were studying and living together as roommates in France. It seems appropriate that I'm mourning her loss here .  I have so many fond memories of our days in Europe and there are so many things which are reminiscent of our time together.
Michele will be missed by my siblings and relatives in Toledo, Ohio where she and Joan often came up to visit in her little VW Bug.
Words can't express my loss.
RIP, Mitch.

My heartfelt condolences to Michele's sister Danielle and to the entire network of family and friends. Clearly Michele will be deeply missed.  She shines out of these beautiful photos.

Thinking of you Hank, Noelle and Francesca.  
Michele's kindness and laughter will remain in our hearts forever.  Hoping that your loving memories will bring you comfort and peace.
With love and deepest sympathy to you and your family,

I grew up with Michele.  I watched her grow from a little schoolgirl,into a young woman,and then a wife ,mother and Grandmother. Her daughters and husband were her greatest joy.Then she met Vada and Delaney!  She will live on in those she loved.  her spirit lives on in our hearts.  I love you,Michele,forever,and God blessed me with the best sister in the world.

Michele Hawley I was one of the four at JFK Medical Center. You always make me laugh. You gone too soon.  I pray your family and friends find the strength to go on but you will always be in our hearts.

Thinking of you all as you go through this time of loss. May you find strength in each other. While I met Michele only briefly, I know that she was a much loved wife and mother.
