Michele L. Vandervest

I am so sorry to hear of Michelle's passing. She was one of the most creative go getters I know. A special memory is one of Dean's birthday parties in which much detail was brought forth by Michelle. She even exchanged a massage (one of Michelle's great traits was bartering) for the use of a King's Chair that Dean was required to sit in while being roasted. I enjoyed helping her quickly decorate while Ken & Dean went out for a beer. Michelle, your tenacity & creativity will be missed greatly. Hugs to all the family. I am so sorry!

Thank you Michele for being a friend who can and would talk about anything, anytime. For listening and truly caring and always being willing to help with just about anything. You would argue with me and share creativity in ways that I hope made us both a bit better. I have pictures in my mind of memories that will never go away. Not the least thing I am grateful for is our collaboration on the most epic prank ever on our dear friend Dave Wipperfurth, the fish tree. Love and miss you, Shawn
