Michelle Ficarra Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Bass & Gasper Funeral Home from Nov. 3 to Nov. 12, 2025.
Michelle Ficarra, 60, of Boonville, MO, passed away on Sunday, November 2, 2025, at the University of Missouri Hospital. Graveside service will be held on Monday, November 10, 2025, at the Westport cemetery in Westport, IN, at 2pm. Michelle Ficarra (Asher) passed away on November 2nd, 2025 at 60 years old. She was a bright and loving presence and will be greatly missed. Michelle dedicated the latter half of her life to being a mother but was always incredibly proud of her time working in the airline industry. Her second greatest love was her animals, most notably the multiple dogs she kept over the years. She leaves behind her two children, Melia and Michael, as well as her partner, Shayne. Her family asks you to remember her happiest moments, and to think of her whenever you see a chihuahua.
