IN MEMORY OF MICHELLE SANFORD
______
HON. SCOTT FITZGERALD
of wisconsin
in the house of representatives
Wednesday, May 12, 2021
Mr. FITZGERALD. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor the memory and celebrate the life of Mrs. Michelle Sanford, a resident of Pewaukee, Wisconsin who passed away at the age of 52 on April 19, 2021 after a courageous battle with cancer.
Michelle will be remembered for her spirited and uplifting energy that she brought into every corner of her life. To her colleagues at the Association of Equipment Manufacturers, where she worked for more than 20 years, Michelle's infectious laughter and smile will be missed. As will her energy that she brought to every project no matter how big or small, or close or far. Michelle started her career as a secretary at AEM, and quickly grew to become an integral leader of the AEM exhibitions and operations team. She oversaw operations for AEM's many trade shows, and she traveled the globe to support international exhibitions in China, India, and Russia, among other places.
Michelle enjoyed her time with family and giving back to her community. She volunteered at many organizations but notably volunteered with the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Eastern Wisconsin. Michelle served on their board and as a direct volunteer.
On behalf of Wisconsin's 5th Congressional District, it is my privilege to celebrate the life and legacy of Michelle Sanford for her outstanding contributions to our community. I offer my heartfelt condolences to Michelle's family, including her loving husband Donald, her mother Claire, and her many nieces, nephews, cousins, relatives, and friends she is survived by
