I met Michelle at Central High School and she was a blast to be around. on weekends, we would go out and drive up and down Center and Euclid. Later, we worked together at Mutual Savings. She was upbeat and a wonderful friend, and I will miss her greatly. I BELIEVE she is in heaven and will greet us one of these days. She was a an angel in my life. May God be with her family and know she is watching down from heaven. AMEM
My deepest sympathy goes out to Michelle’s family on their loss.
Brad, Magen, Neil and kids, no words can express the sadness we feel for your loss. Know that our prayers will be with you always.

My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. I worked with Michelle at the facility and will always remember her for her bright smile and her friendliness to everyone. She is truly missed.
Another shining star burned out too quickly. I’ll always remember the smile in your eyes (and how much you loved my wife’s ‘soft’ Snickerdoodles).

She was a beautiful person
Michelle was at our house constantly as she and my sister Joanne were best friends. I remember when I was expecting my oldest daughter, Michelle was about 15 and was amazed when Jenny would kick my stomach. She asked if she could feel the baby move. Her eyes were like saucers and the smile on her face was so big. She said she couldn’t wait to become pregnant so she could feel her own baby move inside of her.
R.I.P. Michelle.
I remember the many times Michelle hung out with my sister Joanne Huffman. I still have a picture of her with a cast on her leg. She was always smiling and having fun. Some times causing trouble but what the hell. Loved her anyway. She is In The arms of The Lord now and at peace. May her ever present smile always be with you
