Michelle lived in Lubbock, Texas for many years and owned her own cleaning business there. Michelle moved back to the Durango after the death of her husband, Mel. In Durango Michelle worked in a variety of jobs, but discovered a true calling and a love in caring for elderly and disabled adults as a home health caregiver.

Michelle was such a kind caring lady. We would go down and dig her out of the snow and laugh and laugh. She is missed and always will be. Rest in Paradise our friend.

I met Michelle when I was in the third grade. We were best friends from third grade all the way through high school and continued to be until her death. She was a beautiful dear friend that I will surely miss! Please accept my condolences to all the family. Michelle will always be in my heart!!

Thinking of all the family, sending my love. Praying for peace in this for all knowing how much she love each of you.. Mike loved all of you and spoke often of Michelle while he was here with me. Now they are dancing before the Lord in worship. Live for HIM that we may all be re-united one day... Carol Burt
