Michelle was the devoted mother of Kyle Hadley and Corbin Garcia and a proud grandmother to Kaya Hadley, Jayda Hadley, Norah Hadley, Carmen Garcia, and Willow Hadley. Being a Mimi brought a special joy to Michelle’s life, and the memories she made with her grandchildren will be treasured by them and their families for years to come.

She is also survived by her siblings, Brian Hadley, Stephanie Werner, and Michael Hadley, along with extended family and many friends who shared in the different chapters of her life.

Michelle’s life cannot be measured by its difficult moments. She will be remembered for the laughter, the memories, the love she gave, and most of all, for the place she held in the hearts of her family and friends. Her sons will forever carry the memories of their mother, and her grandchildren will grow up knowing the grandmother who loved them and the moments they shared together.

Michelle leaves behind a family who will miss her deeply and continue to honor her memory by telling her stories, holding onto the good moments, and carrying the love she gave forward.

A celebration of Michelle’s life will be announced at a later date. Details will be shared with family and friends as soon as arrangements are finalized.

May she rest peacefully, knowing she was loved, and may her memory live on in all those fortunate enough to have known her
