Michelle Aldridge

Michelle, I was blessed to have known you for eight short years, though it always felt as though we had shared a lifetime. We were the perfect yin and yang — different in many ways, yet somehow fitting together effortlessly.

I will forever cherish the days we spent side by side: playing cards until we lost track of time, talking about life in all its chaos and beauty, and simply existing in the kind of comfortable silence that only true friends can share.

Watching you grow into the person you wanted to be was a privilege. You trusted me to walk beside you, to steady you when you doubted yourself, and to celebrate every step you took forward. It was an honour I will carry with me always.

Your strength, kindness, and humour have left an imprint on my heart that will never fade. I will miss you more than words can hold, but I take comfort in knowing that your light will continue to shine through the many lives you touched — and especially in mine.

Rest peacefully, my dear friend. Thank you for the love, the laughter, and the memories that will stay with me for the rest of my days. Until we meet again ❤️

beautiful Michelle, I shall always think of you with that lovely smile you have.
