I worked with Michelle at SVHS. She was a wonderful person and so good with the students. I will miss seeing her at school. My deepest sympathies to her family. God bless
Michelle, as much joy as you filled this earth with. I cannot even imagine the joy you now have in heaven! O, the things you may teach those angels! You are and always will be loved!
My dear dear friend, what a great loss it is to me. I will always treasure our friendship we have had for the last forty years. Always, Linda & Bob Martin
Dear Kellie and Andrea, What a sweet and caring lady your mother was. I am so very sorry to hear of her death. I did not know she was sick. Some time ago, I saw your mother in the grocery store and she immediately showed me pictures of your children, Kellie. She also filled me in on what you girls were doing at that time. Remember how she and Dana Huckle took over and made Stacie’s tenth birthday party a wonderful time on the day that my daddy died? It was such a sweet thing to do for me and Stacie. She was always a part of Stacie’s parties and a happy part at that. I know how very hard this must be for you girls and your daddy. I will see you on Tuesday. Please know how very much I care. My love, Cynthia Champlin
What a great loss losing Michelle is to our family. We will miss her wonderful humor and her playful manner. No matter what kind of a problem you may have had, she could always find a way to make you laugh about it. We always enjoyed the wonderful, and funny stories she would tell. She loved her family, and was always so proud of them. When you would ask her if she had any new pictures of her grandchildren, she only had to open her purse. We just have so many happy memories of you Michelle. Thank you for all the love and laughter that you brought to our lives. We love you and we will miss you dearly. We look forward to the day that we will see you again. Our deepest sympathy to you Virgil, Kellie, Andrea, and family. We love you all, Aunt Elizabeth King Linda Ackerman Gary & Carolyn Faught Sherri Schoenert Stephen Schoenert
Working with Michelle at SVHS was always a joyful & happy experience. She was so proud of her family and students, quickly ready to share her fun stories with both. She will be truly missed! I loved her dearly! I will always remember her sweet smile & infectiously positive attitude.
Kelly and Andrea, I am deeply sorry to hear about the loss of your mother. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your families.
Kelly and Andrea, When I hired your mom, I knew I’d hired someone who would be an asset to our staff. I wasn’t wrong; your mom was a positive, supportive, professional staff member. Additionally, every dish she prepared for our parties was delicious, and I’ll think of her when I make her pecan pound cake or fabulous punch recipes. She was so very proud of you girls and we shared many Texas Tech stories. My deepest condolences to you and your family.
Dear Haese family, While I have not seen Michelle for many years, I do have fond memories of her going way back to school at St. Mary Magdalen and also Ursuline Academy. Her wonderful sense of humor always kept us laughing no matter how bad things were in school. That is certainly something I will always remember about her. I’m deeply sorry for your loss, but I bet everyone in heaven is really having a good laugh with Michelle.
Dear Haese Family, Your mother was excellent in working with children. She worked with our son Eddie for several years at the high school, Eddie loved her. When he need help he would also seek her leadership. She will be deeply missed.
IT IS WHAT IT IS That was Michelle and her wonderful attitude about everything. Working with Michelle several years ago, I felt like I knew the family from our conversations. Even though we hadn’t worked together for a while, every time I would see her(mainly at HEB) she would whip out those pictures and we would block the aisle catching up. From grandchildren to new homes, jobs and horses. How proud she was. I will cherish the memories I have of her.(along with some of her marvelous recipes)
Dear Haese family, From St. Mary Magdalen’s through Ursuline, I enjoyed the wonderful humor and positive spirit of Michelle. The last few months, I have been thinking of her everytime that I go to WalMart. I loved talking with her and seeing the funny side of daily life. She will be missed, but I have no doubt that she is having a wonderful time in heaven.
Kelly and family, Our sincerest condolences on the loss of your mom. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Love, The Nortons
Haese and Gray families, I was very saddened to hear of Michelle’s passing. This world lost a wonderful, kind person. I extend my sincere wishes of deep sympathy to all of you and I hope that your memories will help to ease your grief. I would have attended her service but I was in Boston visiting my newest grandchild. I am sorry for your loss. Lyda Kyrish Golsch.
