Michelle was not just my sister-in-law, she was my little sister. I love her dearly. When dating her brother she dated with us. She was the light in her brother’s eyes. I loved taking her shopping for school clothes, Great Escape, swimming and countless other adventures. Helping her with her babies was precious. And her visits to Florida, priceless. She loved Disney as much as I do. I will forever miss her.
I am sorry to hear the passing of Michelle I liked her she was very good to me I didn’t have any problems with her I enjoyed seeing her at Price Chopper with her smiling face may she rest in peace
