Today’s Thanks For Being Here is a eulogy written by Kelly’s dear friend Tracy Tuttle McGowan for her mother Michele White.

A lover of travel, she particularly appreciated all things French and embodied “joie de vivre”. Michele walked through life wowed by beauty and made it her business on every occasion, and in all surroundings, to make things more lovely.
