I just learned of Michele’s passing. Sending my deep condolences. Michele had an incredible outlook on life especially considering the health issues she lived with. This is a beautiful video, it captures her love of family, children and life that she approached filled with love and compassion. May she rest in peace and may all the family find peace going forward.
Our NCBI Rochester community mourns the death of our friend, Michele Ely. Tributes to her include phrases like “phenomenal woman,” and “gentle yet fierce.” One person noted that “her one-to-one conversations made you feel as though you had her undivided attention.” Others used words like “truth,” “principle,” “wisdom,” “strength,” and “kindness.” May her memory resound in the lives of all she touched.
I was so sad to learn of Michele’s passing. I got to know her through our service on the Children Awaiting Parents Board of Directors. Michele was an inspiration, always seeking the sustainability of CAP in order to ensure opportunities for children waiting in foster care to find their forever famlies. Her passion, generosity, and vision guided us, and her dream continues to help place children with loving families. She was a good friend, and I will miss her. May she rest in peace, and may her memory be a blessing that brings comfort in the days and months ahead.
