i knew michelle about two years. not long in the grand scheme but long enough to realize i was was dealing with a person with a big heart. we began as writer/editor, i soon realized she wasn't one's average editor. she could take the knife to pieces but always find something good about the piece. michelle was someone you could literally say nothing bad about. we soon began a lively dialogue. i'm usually a pretty 'play it close to the vest guy but her open heart changed that. i felt i clould share things with her as she shared with me. i'm not sure i've had a more trusting/trustworthy friend.
michelle had her problems as we all do. hers were worse than most. she would share these afflictions without ever expecting my pity. of course in my heart i felt she had been asked for more than her share of the burden.
i was very fond of michelle. may her constant suffering be over. i'll miss our friendship very much & see you on the other side.
