Michelle you will truly be missed!
I will never forget you and all the good times we shared.
Rest easy my friend and hug all of our loved ones that up there in Heaven. 🙏❤️🙏💪
Michelle you are one of a kind. Devoted mother and grandmother. One of the best committee people in 31.st ward. Always advocated for your community and especially your neighbors. I believe we meet in 1996 when you resided on Richmond St., that was the beginning of a long time friendship by phone or dropping in the office for some assistance. As long as I have known you and the many times you cried for the pain either for yourself or someone else. You would pick yourself right back up and start all over. You were a tough city girl. Rest In Peace my friend and we will meet again 💜
Definitely gone to soon she was a very sweet person Rip my friend ❤🙏
So much life and joy you brought into my life when I needed it, you will be missed by many I’m sure.
A Great Person who Fought A Long Hard Battle, Gone Too Soon. Rest Easy And Fly High Michelle. I Know You’re Reunited With Your Sister Blanche And Your Mom.
A wonderful lady to be around. Always remember everything. Was so helpful and caring. 😇🙏
Rest for now my friend.
We have gone from childhood to adulthood knowing one another. Living different lives but still seeing one another and catching up.
My prayer for you is that your family here can find peace in your resting and not suffering anymore. All the memories we share will forever be etched in my heart.
My love and prayers go out to the children and grandchildren, family and all who knew and love her.
“Although it’s difficult today to see beyond the sorrow,
May looking back in memory help comfort you tomorrow”
Rest in Peace Michelle gonna miss you
