Celebrating the Life of Michelle Gardner

Donation protected
Our hearts are broken as we share the news that our beloved Michelle Gardner passed away yesterday, December 26th, 2024, at the young age of 48. Michelle was a radiant spirit – outgoing and always the life of the party. Her infectious laughter and vibrant personality lit up every room she entered. She was a true friend, fiercely passionate and always ready to celebrate life to the fullest.

Above all, Michelle was an amazing mother to her two children, Justice Wakefield and Elijah Trotter. She faced incredible challenges as a single parent, but her determination and unwavering love created a warm and joyful home for her kids. She poured her heart and soul into providing for them, always putting their needs first. Her love for Justice and Elijah was the driving force in her life, and they were her greatest joy.

Michelle's sudden passing has left a void that can never be filled. To honor her memory and give her the send-off she deserves, we are raising funds to cover the costs of her cremation and a memorial service where we can all come together to share stories, laughter, and celebrate the incredible woman she was.

Any amount you can contribute to help with these expenses would be deeply appreciated and will help ease the financial burden on her family during this difficult time. Please consider donating and sharing this campaign with anyone who knew and loved Michelle.

Let's give Michelle the party she would have wanted!
