Dear Bob, we are so sorry to hear of Michele's passing. She was such a loving person, and very much loved by family and friends. I remember how kind you both were to offer me a place to stay when I came to Ohio for Julia's baptism. I am so glad to have gotten to know her.

I was so sad to hear about your loss. Michele and I were great friends and graduated Cleveland Heights High together. She was a bright light in my life when my family moved into Cleveland, and lived on Maple Road. She would always wave to me from her window, before I even met her. My prayers to her and her family.
