HOLMES, Michele Lee (nee McVea) June 15, 1967 – March 17, 2019 Passed away peacefully, surrounded by her family at the Bob Kemp Hospice on March 17th in her 52nd year.

Beloved wife of Christopher Andrew Holmes for 29 years. Loving and proud mother of Jacob and Maxwell. Loyal daughter of Janet Pheobe (nee Hudson) and the late Ross David McVea.

Michele was a devoted wife and mother, passionate hockey mom, and loyal friend and colleague. She was known as “Mama Bear” in her sons’ hockey community.

Michele was continuously selfless and generously kind. She could light up a room with her happiness. She was quick witted and insightful, always ready to give support and guidance to those she loved. Michele was the “glue” that held her family and friends together. Her genuine, trustworthy and dependable ways garnered great respect from all who knew her. Michele will be lovingly remembered by those whose lives she touched.
