The world has lost one of the most genuine people I have ever met. Michelle was a gentle loving soul who touched everyone she came in contact with. I am grateful for spending more time with her. I miss our daily texts. There will never be another one like you. Cancer took you way too soon. We will meet again. Rest In Peace.

Dear Kate, Mr. Grimes and Michelle's entire family. I cannot say how sorry I am to learn about Michelle losing her battle with cancer.
I have so many wonderful memories of Kate and Michelle, but one especially fond memory that I wanted to share. It was Thanksgiving night, and Joe and I lived in our house in Lockport on North Street, and Kate, Michelle, Carly and Emily came over to hang out for the evening after visiting family.
When everyone arrived you all walked in to our kitchen and the kids, Kate and Kevin were looking through the Black Friday sale adds and making Christmas wish lists.
Kevin had to be 9 or 10, and was struggling with the paper and he looked at Michelle and asked "do you want to help me make my Christmas list?" Michelle said OK, and she started looking through every department store sale add to help Kevin makes his list. She did that for a very long time, having a detailed list of desired items and best store and price. He is 25 and still remembers that night.
Then I made everyone your first turkey and stuffing sandwiches, then and we drank beer outside and had a ball.
Kate, you and Michelle have been a part of mine a Joe's lives for over 17 years and we think the world of you both. We are honored that you chose Heroes to host Michelle's memorial dinner, and she and you will always be in our hearts. Love, Kathy and Joe

I played in a band with Michelle about 15 years ago. She was a fantastic drummer and contributed greatly to our success. She played with so much passion that it was infectious. Michelle was always very pleasant and fun to be around. I am very saddened to hear this news. My condolences to her entire family.

Thank you, Michelle, for being a constant reminder to me of bravery in the face of adversity, and teaching me the art of putting my head down and getting on with it. Our shared love of motorcycles and music bonded us in a way that few others in my life ever could. Although we never met in person, I will forever consider you a dear friend and you will always have a special place in my heart. My prayers are with Kate and Michelle's family, and I know you are in a much better place, friend. Ride on.

My love to all in this profoundly deep heartache. My prayer is for peace and comfort. (Special hug and love to you bro)
Michelle wrote me a note about a week before she passed. Her perspective blessed my heart. May we all draw near to God, serving and loving others (didn't that encompass her life!), recognizing God's love, accepting Jesus' sacrifice for our lives, and serving Him wholly.
This is part of her note to me:
"I have a better understanding now that it's not all about me. God works in mysterious ways, ways that I don't have to understand. ... I have faith that all of this is in God's hands, even the worst-case scenario. Kate and I have read the Bible in a year for the past four years. We've learned a lot in doing so. ... As things get more difficult, I find myself draw closer to God for help."
And this is a Bible verse from a devotional Michelle recently shared with me: "Thanks be to God who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ" I Corinthians 15:57
Peace, Aunt Deanna
