Michele was born in Quincy, Massachusetts on August 28, 1954, daughter of Shirley T. (Dwyer) (Dubois) Richardson and the late Edward G. Dubois. In January 1973 Michele married Al and began her most cherished and important roles in her life-Wife, Mother, and Grandmother.
Michele’s whole world revolved around her grandchildren, endlessly travelling the state with her best friend, her husband Al, to be their number one fan and cheerleader at the enumerable sporting events and other important school-related and life activities. She continuously offered praise and accolades; in her eyes, they could do no wrong.
In addition to her husband, she is survived by her greatest life accomplishments, her children, Kim, Al, and Kelley and their spouses, Mark, Janelle, and Nate; and the center of her universe, her grandchildren, Jake, Emily, Amelia, Madelynn, Bella, Zach, and Makayla; siblings, Annette Watts, Denise Borcykowski and her husband Robert, Sharlene Dubois and her husband Charles, Shirley Cranton and her husband Steven, Kathleen LoPorto and her husband Nick, James Dubois and his wife Lucille, Gerard Dubois, Peter Dubois and his wife Lisa, and several beloved nieces and nephews.
