We have waited a few days to post anything, as her passing just doesn´t seem possible. Michele was a wonderful person, the type of person that would light up the room when she walked in. She treated everyone with respect and kindness, regardless of what SEC team you rooted for. She will live on through all of the great memories we had together and in our hearts! The world is a lesser place without her in it.
