Micki was a great person I'll miss her

Memories of Micki will forever be with me. She was a wonderful person, good and giving and sharing. It was a pleasure having her in my life. We had our ups and downs, but that's part of life. We had so many plans for the future. I never wanted to get on a plane, but I told her one day I was not afraid to get on a plane anymore. We were two different people, but we did it. We became good friends, and I will never forget her. She loved people and her family, and I got to see why. They are very loving people.

Sorry to hear this devastating news. Our deepest sympathy to family. We just met her last week at her grand daughter party, she was having so much fun with her grand kids.
May her soul rest in peace

I am so sad to hear of Micki's passing. She was supposed to visit us next month in Florida and she will be so very missed. My condolences to her family and friends. I worked for Micki for a few years and she was such a good giving person, who always took care of her friends. She could be a hothead at times, but that was Micki, and that was one of the things I loved about her. She had a real zest for life and it was very contagious. Micki, may you rest in peace, my old friend. - ~Jimmy~
