I knew Michalle when she was tiny. I visited my great grand parents and my grand parents farm across the street from the Gazo family. They let me ride their horses when I came to visit. Michalle always ran across the room for a hug and a kiss. She was a loving child. I would love to hear from the family. (214) 728-0552

Michalle was such an inspiration to everyone who knew her. I fondly remember attending services with the Gazo family at Fellowship Tabernacle many years ago when Brother Johnny and Sister Betty ministered at that church. She was always like a ray of sunshine when she would come through the door and with all of her being, worshipped the Lord in her own special way. Michalle always expressed her love of Jesus and the church family. She was a very sweet and loving person and I will always remember those HUGS. My dear friend, Pat Canardy, loved her so very much and now she is walking the golden streets of Heaven with her. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Gazo family during their loss of such a special "Angel". May God Bless all of you.

I remember when she was little. Your family would come to the Valley Church for singings. Johnny and Melanie would sing and Michalle would sing with them as her mama held her. Praying for comfort for the family that only comes from God above. So sorry for your loss, but look at heaven's gain!

Thank you all for the sweet thoughts and memories you've shared of Michalle. We especially appreciate the prayers you have sent our way. Michalle was a wonderful example of how we all should live our lives. She wasn't afraid to love with the unconditional love of Christ. As her neice I have many many wonderful memories of times spent with Michalle. She was such a blessing in my life. I am going to miss her HUGS that's for sure, the smiles and I love you's she always greeted me with. It is reassuring to know she is with our Heavenly Father, singing I know! We love you Aunt Chel Chel!

I have known Michella all of her life. Even with everything she went though as a child, she still had so much love more than anyone I have ever seen. She loved going to church and singing .Her favorite song was "O How I Love Jesus". She was a very hard worker, and was always willing to help you with anything you was doing. She always loved playing jokes and having fun. She was a very special person in mine and my familys life. we will miss her very much. Michella was like my own family. I love you very much, Michella. My prayers go out to all the family and friends.

Michalle was so special to me. I loved being able to communicate with her. I still have many of the I love You --Smiley Face notes she gave me. I will miss seeing her out and about at the ball games as well as other church functions. She was truely an inspiration to all she came in contact with. She had soooo...much love to pour out on everyone that she knew. I will miss that. I am looking forward to seeing her in her glorified body and hearing the most beautiful songs she will sing to Jesus. She has now joined that great clowd of witnesses that is cheering the rest of us on. I will continue to pray for the family as I know this void will not be replaced except with the comfort of our Lord and Savior.I wish I could attend the service, but circumstances will not allow. My thoughts and prayers are with you:)

TO the Gazo family,
So sorry for your loss. Michalle was loved by so many and will be greatly missed. She always would touch Waynes beard and then walk off and laugh with that distintive laugh of hers. Her laugh and her singing will always be a beautiful memory of mine. I think she loved everybody and is now singing with the Angels. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and may God comfort you all. Vicki Benson and family.

My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. I know you are sadden by the loss of Michelle, but I know that God had better plans for her. Now she is up there walking and talking, and for sure hugging all those that went before her. Anyone that knew Michelle had to feel the love she had for God, and those around her. I remember when she was born, and the battles God brought her thur. She is living proof that God performs Miracles. I hope you find comfort in knowing she is in a better place than you and I. And she can now hear all the beautiful music, and I'm sure she is singing praise. Thougths and prayers to all of you.

Rena and family:
I'm so sorry to hear of Michalle's passing. I always loved being greeted by her hugs and smile. It amazed me that even if I had not seen her in a long time, she remembered me and my name sign. She never hesitated to tell me that she loved me. I know she will be missed at your family gatherings. I hope you have some peace knowing that she can now hear and speak and that she is doing it with her Heavenly Father.
I love you,
Bee

I am Trudy Drye's sister. I never got to meet Michalle, but, I felt like I knew her, because I heard Trudy and Rick talk about her ALL the time. Our family loves Rick......and I know that he and Trudy and all of you are hurting-I just want you to know that our family is thinking of you and praying for you. A special prayer goes up for Mr. and Mrs. Gazo - I can't imagine losing a child. I know Michalle is in a wonderful place because Friday night Jesus welcomed "his child" home.
Love and prayers from all of the Drye family.
