Michele was a member of Our Lady of Victory Catholic Church.
She, like her mother, enjoyed crafts, creative designs, and would paint or put gems and glitter on anything that needed more sparkle.
Michele planned and coordinated neighborhood summer picnics that brought everyone together. Her love, caring, and compassion for others will be missed. She raised two cats from kittens, and her ability to love was very apparent.
