Michelle Dwyer Obituary
Michelle traveled extensively nationwide and was an asset in the medical field to include Pennsylvania, Virginia and Alaska. Her passion was caring for others especially the underprivileged community. Always advocating for the safety and wellbeing of her patients, she was recognized many times throughout her career for her compassion and professionalism. Experiencing her own health problems in later years she took delight in knowing her nursing credentials were current and would be of benefit should she regain her prior composure.
Michelle enjoyed her Pittsburgh Steelers, and found joy in her doll collectables. Her day would be incomplete were she to miss an episode of Good Morning America.
Shortly before her passing, Michelle traveled to Virginia to be with her daughter Ashley and was able to meet her new infant grandsons Khalil and Makai. This was an experience that gave Michelle great pride and inner peace. She also enjoyed her husband's constant attention and being referred to by him as, 'My Sweet Wife.'
Michelle is survived by her husband Thomas E. Dwyer. She was a proud mother of, and survived by her two daughters, Marissa (Baker) Dean of Alaska, and Ashley (Baker) Nguyen of Virginia, son Tyler Baker of Pittsburgh Pa., sister Melissa (Rose) Burkett and brother Thomas Baskeyfield. She also enjoyed the company of her husband's extended family in Alaska, California and New York to include four stepsons.
In addition to her mother and father, she is preceded in death by her younger sister Nicole Marich, who she loved dearly, her Aunt Jacqueline Romonsky, and Uncle Kenneth Rose.
Michelle will be missed dearly by the family and many friends who knew her.
