Kody Davis, currently stationed in Okinawa, Japan; Matt Jackman of Pocatello, Morgan Davis of Pocatello and Veronica Jackman of Pocatello. She was also a VERY proud grandparent of Dylan, Caelyn and Curtis Johnson.
Michelle attended school in Blackfoot, Twin Falls, Pocatello and Las Vegas before graduating from Highland High School in 1991. She received her bachelor's degree in criminal justice from Columbia University in 2005.
She proudly served as an Ada County Sheriff's Detention Deputy 2004-2005. She was a very active participant and board member of the POW*MIA Awareness Corp. in Pocatello. She loved playing softball, bowling, roller skating and visiting the ocean. She was truly happy when she was on a motorcycle.
