Not sure what to say?

She was a caring teacher, a brilliant clinician, and most of all, a dear friend. The world is immeasurably poorer for her passing. I shall miss her, and think of her often.

Micki was a dear friend at Michigan State. In many ways an inspiration, she always had a smile on her face and was ready to take on the world. I will cherish many fond memories of her and wish her peace after the courageous battle. Love, John Francis

This was Michelle in her fight with cancer. I got to know Michelle when I joined the College of Veterinary Medicine in 1985-then large and small animal clinicians were joined together within department. She taught many of the residents that I knew and had a unique sense of humor. My deepest condolences to the LeBlanc and Anderson families.
