Michelle was born on July 1st, 1970 in Beaumont, Texas. Michelle was kind, loving, empathetic, and always ready to go see a good movie.

Michelle graduated from Little Cypress-Mauriceville High School in 1988. She worked at Orange Pharmacy as a certified pharmacy technician for many years and eventually became a pharmacy technician instructor at Lamar State College-Orange. After several years of instructing, Michelle finally pursued her dream of becoming a funeral director. She attended the Commonwealth Institute of Funeral Service in Houston, Texas and graduated in 2010.

Michelle was born to assist others as they mourned the loss of a loved one. She was naturally and effortlessly empathetic--she knew exactly what to say and met others in their grief.

Michelle adored her family. She was a loving daughter, proud mother, and a doting aunt.

Michelle is survived by her parents, John and Mary Dennison; her siblings, Melanie Marshall and Patrick Dennison; her children, Corey McMullen, Trey McMullen, and Elle (Blake) Clingaman; her niece and nephews, Anna Marshall, Jackson Marshall, Jacob Fuller, Alexander Dennison, and Jonah Dennison; her former spouse, Jon Clingaman; her dogs, Monkey and Sugar; and many other relatives scattered throughout Southeast Texas and beyond.

Michelle faced her struggles in life with tenacity, morbid humor, and faith--she laughed through the pain.

While we mourn her death, we rejoice in the knowledge that we will see her again.

Serving as pallbearers are: Dane Dennison, Grant Dennison, Jackson Marshall, Trent Marshall, Rodney McMullen, and Angie Davis.
