I am so sad to hear of Michelle's passing. She welcomed me to the neighborhood with that winning smile and always made a point to wave or pause and chat. She spoke with pride of her son Caleb and husband Mike. My heart goes out to you and I am so sorry for your tragic loss.

I'm so sorry and heartbroken to hear about Michelle. I know there are no words that I or anyone can say that can ease the pain you must be going through. I'm sorry I didn't know her after she grew up but I want you to know that no matter how much time passes or whether we haven't had contact- you will always be family and in my thoughts and prayers. If there was something I could do to take the pain away- I would. We need to hold those we love close because life has no guarantees. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I love you all.

Sorry to hear of the loss of our dear family member. Wish it wasn't the way most of us found out but the family has grown apart sad to say. I am thinking of the Qualey, Dearborn and Barnard family. Treasure the memories and don't take anything or anyone for granted.

I am so heartbroken to learn of Michelle's passing. I have so many fond memories of her and I together. I will always owe her the confidence she gave me as a teen, despite only being a teenager herself at the time. She was an amazing person.
