Michele Saibene Obituary

Michele Saibene
July 20, 1944 - January 12, 2023
Michele R. Saibene passed away peacefully on January 12, 2023, in Sonoma, CA. Born and raised in San Francisco, CA, Michele moved to wine country in 1986 as a weekend resident and later made Sonoma her full-time home. She worked for Pacific Bell from 1964 to 1987 when she decided to take an early retirement. She married the love of her life Peter J. Saibene in 1989 and they spent 33 wonderful years together. She is survived by her husband Peter and numerous family members and friends in San Diego, Sonoma, the Bay Area, Arizona and Scotland. Michele will be remembered for her generosity, thoughtfulness, honesty, willingness to help others, quick wit and love of games!
A funeral Mass will be held on Thursday, January 26, 2023, at 10:00 a.m. at St. Francis Solano Catholic Church located at 469 Third Street West in Sonoma. In lieu of flowers, and in memory of Michele, her family prefers a donation to the charity of your choice.
