Hi my name is Catherine Bernard I am Michelle's daughter. My mom has suddenly passed away unexpectedly and it has been the worst pain I have ever felt. She was an amazing,kind,loving women and was always making people laugh and helping them with Whatever they needed no matter how much pain she was in or having a bad day herself. She loved cats and had alot of faith in God and being able to go to heaven which I know she is there having the time of her life with her aunts and grandma and all her friends too. My mom unfortunately didn't have any life insurance or anyway to pay for a service so these funds are greatly needed, she was barely surviving on the little SSI she was getting. My mom wanted to be cremated and have her ashes spread over a special location that her and I know about in Santa Monica which she often took me when I was a little girl.

I know that funds are very tight for all of us right now and every dollar counts and will add up quickly from all of us together. I'll be extremely grateful for everything no matter how small or big. My mom loved everyone and every thing and I want to make sure that her final wishes are granted and i will do everything In my power to make that happen. Ty so so much to everyone in advance for your kindness and generosity towards My mom in these difficult times.

I am also going to be putting together a celebration of life for my mom and will be trying to include all of my mom's friends and family who are in the Los Angeles area. I'll be letting you all know when the times comes so we all can attend and get together to celebrate my mom. And I'll also be trying to include everyone else who isn't near by too.

RIP Michelle Christina Bernard 5/26/1960-01/06/2023

I will always love you and miss you everyday of the rest of my life.
