Micole’s cherished times were roller skating and picnics overlooking the disaster practice site. Micole was always happiest at home with her family.

Micole has always been One of my favorite kids. She will be dearly missed. She was her own person. Never felt the need to follow. I loved her Goth and dark sense of humor. We shared a special bond even though after they moved we didn’t communicate very often it was always there when we did. I have a picture in my living room she took . I see it every day and think of her. she was special, unique and loved❤️
With All my Love And Prayers always in my Heart
Micole was a beautiful strong woman. Who was my ride or die at the worst part of my life, she alone help me make it through. I will always have a place in my heart for her. GOD BLESS
Fly high my beautiful friend. Can’t wait to meet you on the flipside where we will race through the empty cornfields, me on my short gray QH and you on your swaybacked, fiery little pinto. Some of my most treasured memories. Thank you for always being you, thank you for always being a fighter. You fought for longer than anyone should have to and you deserve all the peace and love in the universe. I love you, I’ll miss you, and will remember you always.
One of my very favorite Talia friends! Loved watching the girls ride through our fields and down the country roads! She always knew she had a second home with us! What a fighter, she was handed a crappy deal, but she never let it stop her!! Love knowing her & loved loving her! Talia’s Mom
I will miss your wit and sarcastic humor. I love you and miss you. The best sister in law I could ever ask for.
I’m in Colorado with no way to make it there for the funeral, I’m sorry for that. Looking back on my life you were a large part of them crucial younger years and I’m grateful. Micole as I’ve said to you many times, you always were and still are the strongest chic I know. I’m going to miss you my dear friend.
