Michelle was pre-deceased by her radiant step daughter, Jessica, who we know greeted her with open arms and a deeply missed embrace.
Outside of her career, Michelle was passionate about her family and friends, often fostering decades long relationships with people living all over the country. She was a super fan of her niece and nephews and never missed an opportunity to cheer at a concert, game, ice show or any other occasion to show her pride. Michelle was also an avid animal lover rescuing German Shepard dogs and several cats. Her animals were treated as royalty.
Michelle loved to travel and made many memories exploring the world with friends and family.
