To the Norwood and Jamison Family,
I'm a former classmate of Michelle. She was always a sweet person and friend. Even though we have lost track of each other over the years, she was always someone that was always on my mind. My deepest sympathy goes out to both families. You all are in my prayers. God Bless.

A loved one is hard to lose; God is still near. When you shed your tears, others cry with you.
Though we know not the day or the hour, peace will come and come with the knowledge that we will all be together rejoicing and praising God for His mercy and grace.
Even though we didn't get to say good-bye, Chell's love remains. We love you and pray for you and the childrens' comfort. May God keep all of you under His umbrella of love.
