Michele was the best friend anyone could ever have. She was loyal, trustworthy, dependable, compassionate, and always putting others first before herself.

Her favorite things were watching her daughter horseback ride, watching her son play baseball, going to the movies with the kids, going to the beach, being around friends and family, and enjoyed getting up and going to work.
