Michelle Lee Fey, 45, of Kalispell, passed away on Oct. 19, 2016, surrounded by her family at home.

Michelle Lee Miles was born in Des Moines, Iowa, on Nov. 23, 1970, to David Miles and Linda Scott (Kerr). She lived in California as a child and later moved to Iowa where she graduated from Humboldt, Iowa, in 1990. She participated in FFA and 4-H.

Michelle married the love of her life, Bryan, on April 28, 1990, in Humboldt, surrounded by family and friends. In October of 1990 she welcomed daughter Kaylee and later in March of 1993 welcomed daughter Kelsey, and her family was complete. She chased the girls as they played various sports, bow hunted with husband Bryan, and helped out on her husband’s family farm. In the summer of 2001 her family moved to Montana where Bryan started working at the local timber mill. She then spent her time watching her girls grow up, doing foster care, running her own day care and going to Montana Raceway Park every Saturday night. She enjoyed spending time with family, camping, fishing, going for Harley rides with husband Bryan, and spending time with precious granddaughter Cataleya Mae.

Michelle was a wonderful mother, wife, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend and is deeply missed by all. Her family would like to extend a thank you to the community for watching over their family during this time.

A celebration is planned for next summer when her out-of-town family and friends come to visit.
