Michele A. Bennett

August 14, 1961 - November 22, 2023

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Michele Bennett, born on August 14, 1961, and peacefully departed this life on November 22, 2023, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. 

Michele was the beloved daughter of James and Flora Berry. In 1988, Michele married her devoted husband, Robert, and together they built a life filled with love and happiness. Their two children, Nicole and Nicholas, brought immeasurable joy to Michele’s life. Her greatest happiness was her granddaughter, Luna Rae Florio. Her niece, Allison Berry, was like a second daughter to her. 

Michele's life was unexpectedly cut short due to complications of cancer. She showed hope, faith, and courage in the face of adversity. Her family finds comfort that she did not have to endure years of pain and suffering.  

She leaves behind her spouse, Robert, and their children, Nicole (spouse Dominick Florio) and Nicholas. She also leaves behind her precious granddaughter, Luna, who knew her as Mimi. She is survived by her nine living siblings, mother-in-law, three brother- and sister-in-laws, and dozens of nieces and nephews. Michele's memory will forever be cherished by her loving family, and she is now with her departed siblings, parents, and beloved grandpap William J. Berry and beloved father-in-law, Raymond Bennett. 

In the wake of Michele's passing, may we find solace in the memories we shared and the legacy she leaves behind. We are comforted that she departed on the birthday of her mother, Flora. Those that knew Michele knew her humor, her honesty, and what a giving and loving heart she had. In turn, Michele touched the hearts and lives of many that will never be forgotten.
