Michelle Barrientos

Born on December 10, 1939, in Manila, Philippines, Michelle was the daughter of Cristeta and Miguel Palacios Barrientos. She graduated from Immaculate Heart of Mary College. Michelle was a loving wife and mother, a loyal friend, a devout Catholic, and served her community through various nonprofit organizations. She had a heart of gold, adored her family and was loved by everyone who met her.

Michelle also had a deep love for music and dancing, and she played the piano beautifully for anyone who would listen. Whether gathered with family or friends, her warmth, joy, and music filled every room and created lasting memories for those she loved.

Michelle is survived by her children, John August Clundt III, Jacqueline Ceran, and Jennifer Bohman; her sons-in-law and daughter-in-law, Tony Bohman, Amr Ceran, and Christina Clundt; her grandchildren, Sylvie and Henry Ceran, and Addison Zelaya; and her siblings, Carmelita Martin, Virginia Stocks, Dolly Sevilla, and Mitzi Vergel de Dios. She was preceded in death by her loving husband, John August Clundt II; her parents; and her siblings, Betty Barrientos, Miguel P. Barrientos Jr., and Josephine Parcon.

A service and celebration of life for Michelle and John Clundt Jr. will be held on June 13, 2026, at Green Acres Mortuary and Cemetery in Scottsdale, Arizona.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations be made to Aster Aging, a nonprofit supporting seniors and elder adults in the East Valley.
