It was only today that I learned that Michealene passed. She used to enjoy coming to Scotsdale Park for Craft classes, It was always lively when she arrived, she was a joy to have in class. She was generous and thoughtful. It was my pleasure to know her.

Dear Family and Friends,

The prayers of the Haran family are with you all at this sad time. We regret that we only just learned of Michaeleen's death this past week at our own father's wake. We all have many fond memories of her and Fran during our years growing up on 82nd Place. I know that my mom still saw her occasionnally at Jewel. We are so sorry for your loss and wish that we would have known about the services. She was always a friendly face on the block!

My #1 Cousin!!!! You have been part of my life, holidays, good and bad times since the day I was born into this family. The matriarch of 10 fun and close cousins. You supported me through the loss of my own mother (and your godmother) with the sharing of many wonderful stories and trips to Holy Sepluchre. I love you Myke for all that made you what you were. Thanks for sharing and making our family so cohesive. I've received many "treasures" from you during my life, but it will be our special relationship as cousins that I will treasure most and keep FOREVER in my heart. We will all miss you terribly! Love, Debby and Bob too!

Tony, Denese and Maura,

Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this time of sorrow in your life.

Michaeleen was a fun loving person with never a loss for words. She always set Tony and I straight when we got out of control.

May God hold Michaleen in the palm of his hand!

God Bless,

Kevin Hayes

I'm sure there's a special place in heaven for a woman who loved angels, chocolate, the zodiac and being Irish. She "adopted" Elysha as her birthday twin and searched high and low to find special treasures for her. She meant so much to both of us. We'll miss her terribly and feel very lucky that she considered us "friends and family."
