Michele M. Jacques

Michele M. Jacques, age 59, passed away peacefully and surrounded by loved ones on Monday March 21st. Michele was born on 4/21/1956 in Winona, MN, where she lived prior to relocating to Hastings MN in 1991. Michele was an amazing wife, mom, daughter, sister, and friend. Those who knew Michele best, would describe her as loving, funny, compassionate, supportive, fashionable, and spirited. Michele deeply loved her family and friends, as well as her pets, cooking, reading, time at the lake with family and friends, and of course – shopping. Michele lived life to the fullest and everyone around her benefited from it. The people who loved her dearly and will miss her every day are: her wife (Cheryl), children and spouses (Erik & Annie, Kristina & Kara, Stephanie, Victor, Milton, and Jade), Grandchildren (Isla, Cohen, and Luca), Mother and Father (Marie & Francis), Siblings (Jim, Susie, Ann, Bob, Renee, Rich, and Teresa) and a whole lot of other people that had the opportunity to meet Michele. Michele spent the majority of her professional career educating children that needed a little extra guidance and someone to believe in them. She loved her work and she loved making a difference in a child’s life. Michele switched career paths in 2011 when she and her wife Cheryl started a dental practice (Lindgren Dental Care) where Michele took on the business and marketing responsibilities – which she just loved. There were very few things that could keep her from the office from that point on. Michele will be missed dearly and meant so much to so many people. The physical void Michele is leaving behind will be filled with so many wonderful memories and shining moments. Celebration of Life: Friday, March 25th from 4-7 at the Wise Family Funeral Home in Hastings, MN Donation Details: A Breath of Hope Lung Foundation
