You are the last thing I think about before I fall asleep. The memories of our life together pop up throughout the day. You are the first thing I think about when I awaken. I miss you and love you. You are not forgotten! Love, DeDe

Dear Tony,



I was so sorry to hear of your loss. I heard about your mother as I was coming in to teach piano lessons, and I couldn't help being in tears. I remember Michelle bringing you to the piano lessons - She was such a cheerful, beautiful mother...

Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help. Please remember that you are in my thoughts.

Your Piano teacher,

Dear Tom and the kids.

I'm so sorry to hear these sad news. My deepest sympathy to you all. Michelle was a wounderful friend, mother and wife.

I first met Michelle at NIU and she became a good friend to me. I was introduced to her enire family and I always felt welcome and that is how I think of Micehelle. A wounderful person whom took good care of everyone around her.

I wish I did not live so far away but if there is anything I can do to help please let me know.

Hugs from Eli

My heart aches with the news of Michelle’s passing. My mind is filled with images that have brought chuckles, a few shakes of the head, a lump in my throat, a tear in my eye and many smiles.



To Tom and family my deepest sympathy.

To Michelle's Family,

Words cannot express how sorry I am for your loss of a wonderful mother, wife, daughter, and sister. Michelle was the first new friend I made in high school and quickly became one of my best friends. All through school, basketball, endless summers, and later in college, she was always there for me and for anyone who knew her. Michelle was a huge influence on my life and was always an example of strength and fortitude. I will treasure the time I had her as a friend and only regret that we lost touch with each other. I will never forget the fun, laughs, and tears we shared. Michelle will always be remembered and loved in the hearts and minds of all who have had the privilege of being touched by her.
