Michelle was a people person, she never knew a stranger and would speak with anybody she met, this came in handy when she managed the US Center Motel in Smith Center. She enjoyed fishing and camping with Andy, being a homemaker, making crafts, taking care of her flowers, gardening and canning vegetables which she learned by helping her grandmother Mayme Hall when she was young. Michelle didn't have kids but her cat Snoop Dog was treated as her son, wherever Michelle was you would always find Snoop Dog. What she loved the most was her family, she never missed going to her siblings, nieces and nephews ball games, school activities and any family event that happened to be going on. Her mother commented that she helped raise her younger siblings while she was working and was very proud of each and every one of them. She will be missed dearly by her family, friends, nieces and nephews.
