I remember as a child Michelle treated me as if I was her own. I will forever cherish my childhood memories of roller skating in her basement, our block parties, her attending school dances/plays, slumber parties, yard sales, and her endless summer fun ideas! Her contagious smile and laugh built people up along with her soft and gentle spirit. You will be deeply missed Michelle! Thanks for treating me with such love and kindness as if I was your own!
