Marguerite “Frankie” Michels, 87, of Sebastian, passed away on April 10, 2014.
She is survived by her sisters Dolores Frazier, Rosemary Groark, Aletha Rector and Carol Ross.
She was preceded in death by her brothers John, Al, and Louis Michels, and a sister Kathleen Michels.
Michels was born on March 30, 1927 in Palm Bay, the eldest daughter of the late Al and Eathel Michels.
She was very proud of her numerous nieces and nephews, and grandnieces and grandnephews. She was especially close to and beloved by her nephew Francisco Ross who was fortunate to spend much of his life in her company.
Michels moved to Grant, Fla., in the 1940s and worked in the US post office there. She also worked as an accountant for the Sea Room Restaurant in Melbourne for many years.
She cared tirelessly for her family and friends, always there when help was needed, when a baby was born or someone was ill. Anyone who knew her was fortunate to have a life with her in it.
A service will be held at St. Joseph Catholic Church in Palm Bay on April 29, 2014, at 10 a.m. She will be burried at St. Joseph Cemetery in Palm Bay.
