Michelle passed away Monday, February 2, 2026, at Corewell Health Butterworth Hospital in Grand Rapids. She was born January 20, 1972, in St. Joseph, the daughter of Francis “Butch” and Brenda Johnson. Michelle graduated from Bangor High School in 1990 and attended Grand Valley State University before transferring to Aquinas College where she earned her teaching degree.
She worked at Bloomingdale Elementary for 20 plus years where she taught and assisted with youth basketball, softball, cheerleading and concessions. She went on to teach at Endeavor Charter Academy in Battle Creek for several years and was currently teaching at Innocademy in Fennville.
Michelle enjoyed crafting, thrift shopping and attending pageants with her daughter. More than anything she loved spending time with her family. Michelle had a contagious laugh and could make friends with anyone. She was an organ donor who selflessly gave the gift of life and research. Michelle married Michael Tourangeau on July 21, 1999.
Surviving are her children, Kohl (Nikki) Tourangeau, Shaylynn (Angel) Tourangeau, Ashley (Jason) Morley, Michael (Andrea) Liskovec and Tyler Tourangeau; grandchildren, Oakley, Michael, Jessica, Aubrey, Brendan and Melody; her parents, Butch and Brenda Johnson of Bangor; brother, Jeremy (Holly) Johnson and nieces and nephews, Baleigh, Sierra, Jordan, Jasmine and Payton.
She was preceded in death by her husband.
