I have many happy memories of Michele in high school. She was a sweet beautiful person, who I know now is with her Savior. Michele rest well,til we meet again.
I am at such a loss for words. My mom and Micheles mom were best friends until Margarets death. That was the beginning of mine and Micheles friendship. I guess we were friends since we were 1 or 2 years old. I have so many wonderful and funny memories of her. She was one of the sweetest people I had the pleasure of knowing. I regret that I let that friendship slip away, I always thought I had time to call and say hey. I love you Michele.
Michelle and I have been friends since first grade. We shared laughs, love and respect for one another. We were friends after high school, as well. We would run into each other, upon occasion and talk about what fun we had. I have such fond memories of our friendship. She will always be a special part of my life. Rainy Days and Mondays will always be our song. RIP my friend. My life was better, by knowing you.
She will be missed. Sorry for the lose.
My best wishes are with the family wish you all the best.

To the family & friends of Michele: I am so deeply saddened to learn of Michele’s passing. She was a wonderful person. I’ve known her most of my life and she was always so sweet & kind and had the most sparkling eyes. I will never forget when I was just a Freshman in high school and she was a very popular Senior, she always spoke to me and smiled. She didn’t ‘deny’ our friendship because of status. The last time I talked to her she was in so much pain with her back, but she kept smiling through it all. Please know you’re in my thoughts and prayers.
I will always remember Michele could smile and brighten the day at Erwin High. I have very fond memories of Michele and Jackson and their parents growing up.May God bless the whole family.
May God bless your family, and be with them during this time. I will always remember Jessica and Jeremy playing and growing up together. My prayers are with your children. Much too early to loose their Mom.
Michele was a wonderful person to all. She will be missed by many. She always had a smile on her face and her eyes always sparkled. Michele was a joy to be around. All of you will be in my thoughts and prayers during this time .
As we think of all those fond memories as childhood friends we are saddened of the loss of a true person thats so full of life and loved everyone she came by. Michele will be missed here but GOD HAS GAINED A DEAR ANGEL to carry on in HEAVEN. Cry for happiness of Micheles homecoming with the LORD and have comfort knowing she knows the LORD and not lost and undone. We will always carry on the memory and smile up to HEAVEN and SAY GOD HAS GAINED A LOVING ONE home. Prayers go to the family.

Dear Family,
I and shocked and saddened to learn of Michele’s passing. We were first friends in Kindergarten and through West Buncombe and Erwin High School. She was always a beautiful person inside and out. When we would run into each other in the community it was always a great opportunity to remember the good times with a laugh and catch up on the present. May God comfort you as only He can.
Jessica,
My prayers are with you and your family. If there is anything I can do, please let me know.

Dear Family,
We are so sorry to hear of your loss. We can only echo the sentiments expressed by so many. Doug and I both knew Michele through family and school. Michele was a truly beautiful person througout life’s ups and downs. The last time I saw her we were standing in a torrential downpour and laughing. We hope your grief will lessen in time and that you find comfort in knowing how many Michele touched with her kindness.
My heart goes out to your family. Michele was a wonderful friend. I had known her from high school at Erwin , then at AB Tech. We had gone through nursing school together. Michele was always beautiful, kind hearted and a joy to be around. Everyone loved Michele, and Michele loved everyone. What a loss to lose someone so special she will be deeply missed. She loved and gave a smile to everyone from Home Coming Court at Erwin High School to nursing school at AB Tech. She was a friend to everyone. She was a blessing to everyone who knew her. My heart goes out to her children, she spoke of you alot while we were in nursing school. Michele’s smile and her memories will be with us forever.
