In memory of

Michelle Catherine McIlroy Bautista

January 16, 1973 -  August 21, 2024

Michelle was an incredibly bright light in all the lives that she touched, and that light was dimmed as she took her last breath in the early morning hours with her loving husband at her side. She was a wonderful mother to her four beautiful children that will continue on as her legacy. Michelle loved her family above all else and will be greatly missed.

She leaves behind her loving husband Antonio Bautista, her cherished daughter Brittany, and her beloved sons Daymond, Bradley, and Jaydon, who were her whole world.

Michelle is predeceased by her Mother Yvonne McIlroy (née O’Leary). She is also survived by her father Douglas (Julie), her sister Charlene,her mother-in-law Fe, her father-in-law Leonardo, brothers-in-law Jasper, Derrick (Kimberly), and Richard (Cindy). She will be greatly missed by her 8 nieces/nephews Joseph, Calabria, Van Diego, Jade, Scarlett, Wyld, Enzo and Hazel; Aunt Joan, Uncle Dennis and cousins Julie, Mike and Greg as well as countless Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, godchildren and dearest friends around the globe

Michelle was always up for a party, filled with the joy of being around people she loved and dancing as much as she could.
She loved her Timmies coffees, watching Young & the Restless, and listening to all things 80’s! Her joy for life radiated with her smile and will be remembered for brightening the darkest days with her love.

May she rest in eternal peace, knowing how she was deeply loved and will be greatly missed.

In lieu of flowers the family would like donations to Michelle's memorial fund

Michelle was mine and my sister’s very first friend when our parents bought houses across the street from each other many years ago. We had countless adventures, camping trips, pool days during our younger years. My deepest condolences to the entire family and prayers for a gentle journey through grief for everyone who loved Michelle.

one of my last memories of Michelle was when she came to my retro 80's BBQ a few years back and even though her health wasn't 100% ... she found the opportunity to dance and enjoyed the retro 80's music being played. Its now a memory I will cherish. She will be missed!!!
