Sincere condolences to the family.  I knew Michele  in school in Cleveland.  although she was 2 yr older. I always thought she was so pretty. That's how I will remember her. 

Michele was such a sweet lady. Gone too soon.

Michele was such a fun teacher! I taught with Ms. Holloway for a couple of years at South Doyle Middle School! She was so friendly and helpful. I loved her huge picture of her grandson on the wall. She had the biggest heart. 

Love and prayers to the family! 

Blessings, 
Kim Walker 

How often I’ve thought about our conversations on the porch outside Betsy Taylor and Carol Vinson’s  rooms! I love you and I’m heartbroken that I didn’t know you were sick- save a place for me on your porch in Heaven- I’ll see you sometime soon!

This photo was taken on our last full year at SDMS. A tragedy brought Michele into my heart. I didn’t even know who she was, but an email was sent out that she lost her sister. I couldn’t imagine losing my sister, so immediately I called my husband and told him about Michele, and that I wanted to send her some flowers, just from me.  That led to us meeting, and becoming not only friends, but honorary family members in both of our hearts. 

I have so, so many fond, heart touching memories of Michele.. and just as many gut busting funny ones! She loves deeply, gives freely, and all that she called friend were blessed beyond riches to have that honor! 

Michele was THE MASTER GIVER OF NICKNAMES at SDMS! Some were obvious, like Tall Gal. Some were not, like Snowflake. 

When you find yourself crying so much from your grief over losing her.. contact me for one of the funny memories! 

I will wear our sister bracelet forever! Miss you Meech!

I am sorry for your loss. I have nothing but fond memories of Michelle aside from Major trying to bite my face off and the Pomeranian who would have gladly torn me to shreds if it had been capable of it. Seriously though, she was a wonderful person and I always enjoyed talking with her. We had reconnected over the last couple of years when she was looking at doing some thing with her house. She was as quirky and comical as ever. I know she is in a better place singing and dancing and making others happy as she did me.

Dear Monique and family, I am so very sorry for your loss. Our moms are the glue to our families and when they gain their heavenly wings it hurts our hearts. I will pray for comfort and strength during this heartbreaking time. May she fly high in Heaven. 

I’m so sorry for your loss.  May you feel the arms of Jesus our Lord and our Savior as you go through the weeks to come.🙏🏻🙏🏻

These pictures are so amazing. She was stunning. We love you guys. You are in our prayers ❤️

We pray for healing for our loved ones, but sometimes God gives our loved one Heaven instead… not a bad deal! 

I hope none of you are offended I put “family” when it asked my relationship to Michele.  We both said we considered ourselves sisters. I am grateful to God for blessing me with the gift of her love. I cannot express how much I love her, and how sorry I am for all of those who knew her, but ESPECIALLY for you.. her actual family members. She loves you all so much, and spent many hours bragging on each of you!

When my sis in law asked me if she could take me to The Melting Pot for my 50th birthday, I said “Only if Michele can come!” because we always celebrated my birthday together! 

I cherish the memories I have of Michele...From 7th grade at Arnold Jr. High, we shared so many fun times and a few sad times...She was not only beautiful on the outside but was also beautiful inside...We have laughed until we cried and cried until we laughed...I know for sure there will never be another Michele...So talented...I love you, Michele, and so glad you are at peace and pain free...RIP, my friend..

My condolences to all the family, and, especially Monique for keeping me up to date on her mother...I am so very sorry for your great loss..
